The 1994 MUMPs User Meeting

The ARPA-supported Multi-User MEMS Processes (MUMPs) has been in existence for
well over a year now and has continued to grow rapidly. Since the first run we
have processed more than 130 designs submitted from over 50 different
university groups, companies and government agencies. With over two years
remaining in this program, now is an excellent time to meet. The purpose of the
MUMPs User Meeting is to provide you with an opportunity to meet other users,
showcase your work, learn more about the process and discuss MUMPs issues.

You may note that the agenda (below) contains two poster sessions. Please
consider bringing a poster on any of your MUMPs related work. The meeting
should be an informal and relaxed atmosphere for presenting your work and
meeting fellow MUMPs users.
