What is Semiconductors 3.0?

I am sick and tired to hear the same buzzwords a zillion times every single day. IoT, Cognitive Computing, Cloud Computing, Fog Computing, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Smart-whatever (from objects to cities and pretty soon toilet paper, I'm afraid). What really makes me sick is that these buzzwords are used, ...

Semiconductor Test Equipment is Powering Innovation
