ABSTRACT Gone are the days when the chip design and its fabrication were baby of only US markets. In 1995 when it was introduced to the whole world by US Defense dept, tectonic shifts have started showing its presence in the high-technology world. Chip manufacturing activities moved out of US markets in form of Asian foundries, and now the back end, verification and design services have also begun their eastward march. The center of gravity of the high-tech industry is slowly but surely moving eastwards, opening the doorway to huge opportunities for Asian nations particularly India.
