Abstract
Anyone wishing to outline the strategic characteristics of the semiconductor industry must look for the common point between those industries which currently lead worldwide growth. In fact, semiconductors act as intermediary products in a growing number of applications (automotive, telecommunications, computers, consumer electronics) which represent a significant part of the global worldwide exchanges,as shown in table 1.
