SMTA and CALCE @ University of Maryland hosted the 2010 Symposium on Counterfeit Electronic Parts and Electronic Supply Chain at the University of Maryland in College Park, MD on November 30 – December 2.

Changes in electronic supply chain had been fast and furious in the last decades and its impact on the practices of companies is still evolving. It is well understood that, the scourge of counterfeit electronic parts is related to the changes in supply chain but it is only one of the many impacts. This symposium will provide a forum to cover all aspects of changes in the electronic parts supply chain on how an organization performs part selection and management through whole life cycle of the parts.
