Text Box: The International Military & Aerospace/ Avionics COTS Conference, Exhibitions & Seminars were started in 1988 by the three United States services (Army, Navy & Air Force) to provide a forum to address the state of the art in advanced microcircuit technology being developed by semiconductor manufacturers for use by the DoD. The technology and resulting microcircuits was known as Very High Speed Integrated Microcircuits, VHSIC. This initial Conference was the VHSIC / VLSI Qualification, Reliability and Logistics Workshop. In 1989 it became the Advanced Microelectronics Technology Qualification, Reliability and Logistics Workshop. The next change occurred in 1995 when it became the Advanced Technology, Acquisition, Qualification, and Reliability Workshop. The Program Committee now consisted of the Army Research Laboratory, University of Maryland, Naval Weapons Support Center, Rome Air Development Center, Defense Electronic Supply Center & the Navy Research Laboratory. With major issues of availability, limited device types, deliverability and cost, the conference objective changed from military approved device processing, testing & qualification to understanding and accepting similar issues of commercial-off-the-shelf , COTS., technology. In 1998 it became the Military / Aerospace COTS Conference sponsored by Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory & organized & supported by The Center For Commercial Component Insertion, Inc., The C3I, Inc .The final revision came in 2000 with the addition of the Naval Surface Warfare Center & the Jet Propulsion Laboratory as sponsors and a title change to the Military & Aerospace / Avionics COTS Conference, Exhibition & Seminars.
