Abstract:  This white paper highlights the critical near-term reliability
challenges facing the International Technology Roadmap for
Semiconductors (ITRS). It is intended to help ISMT groups working
on the 2003 edition of the ITRS understand why each of these
challenges is considered critical and, more importantly, what
questions researchers must answer to prevent these issues from
blocking manufacturable solutions.
