1.1 Benelux Economic Overview

Key ecorK>mic highlights of the three Benelux countries are outlined as follows. Tables 1 tta-ough 3 give the details of the main economic indicators for Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, respectively.

• Belgium

Belgium's 1988 economic growth of more than 4 percent surpassed e3q)ectations, but is forecast to slow steadily.

Investment was particularly buoyant in 1988 and should remain the most dynamic component of domestic demand due to the favorable economic environment. Private consumption increased in 1988 due to increased real disposable income. Inflation is anticipated to increase by 3.0 percent in 1989 compared with only 1.2 percent in 1988.

The unemployment rate is projected to fall slightly due to improved employment p'ospects.

Market share losses were reduced in the export economy, which led to an increased current account surplus of $3.16 million in 1988. But in 1989 and 1990, despite improved international competitiveness, the surplus should be slightly lower due to higher import than export growth.

• Netherlands

The Netherlands economic growth rate in 1989 and 1990 is expected to be between 3.0 and 3.5 percent per annum. This will depend on world trade conditions and their effect on the Dutch economy, which relies heavily on exports.

- Business investment has been buoyant and is expected to continue growing in 1989, but is forecast to grow only slightly in 1990.

- Private consumption is forecast to continue to grow in 1989 and 1990 due to tax cuts and lower social security contributions.

All labor costs are forecast to decline slightly; however, wages are still among the highest in the European Community (EC).

The inflation rate currrently is the lowest in Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Europe but will continue to increase in 1989 and 1990.

Unemployment continues to be high, but the Netherlands has created more jobs in recent years than most EC countries.

1.1 Benelux Economic Overview

Strong export growth is a dominant factor in the improved economic performance. The current account of the balance of payments is expected to show a lower surplus in 1989 than in 1988 due to lower export growth. But in 1990, the surplus is forecast to increase due to higher export than import growth.

Luxembourg

Luxembourg's economic growth in 1988 was more than the OECD average of 4.1 percent due to unexpected strong demand for steel and continued prosperity in the banking and financial sector. In 1989 and 1990, growth rates are expected to be much lower.

Exports provided a strong boost to economic activity in 1988 but are forecast to slow down, leading to lower GDP growth in 1989 and 1990. Private consumption is projected to remain strong with annual growth rates of more than 3 percent.

Investment is expected to increase more in 1989 than in 1988. Inflation is under control with one of the lowest rates in the OECD. Employment levels should continue to rise, which will keep the unemployment rate at one of the lowest levels in the OECD.

1.6 Benelux Design Service Locations

Table 1.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for all Benelux countries. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufactm-ers and identifies the class of service provided. The locations can be divided into three sections, which Dataquest identifies as follows:

• Category A: Design Centers

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor manufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or captive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far the majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate arrays for cell-based ICs (CBICs).

- Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in their own facilities for internal design groups (e.g.. Bull, Lucas, MBB, and Olivetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

- An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

2.1 France Economic Overview

Highlights of the French economy include the following:

The French economy is showing its best growth rates in more than a decade, with strong business investment and growth of unit labor costs under control.

Real wage growth should remain moderate. Increases in unit labor costs could be among the lowest of all OECD countries.

Inflation could stabilize at around 2.5 percent.

Highly favorable profit developments should support a marked acceleration in corporate investment which will continue into 1989.

Unemployment will rise because economic growth is not sufficient to absorb the expected increases in the supply of labor.

Wage restraints and low inflation should improve external competitiveness.

Table 1 gives details of the main French economic indicators.

2.6 French Design Service Locations

Table 2.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for all of France. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufacturers and identifies the class of service provided. The locations can be divided into three categories, which Dataquest identifies as follows:

• Category A: Design Center

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor manufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or cs^tive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far tiie majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate airays for cell-based ICs (CBICs).

- Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in tiieir own facilities for internal design groups (e.g.. Bull, Lucas, MBB, and Olivetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

- An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

3.1 Italy Economic Overview

Highlights on the Italian economy are as follows:

• Italy's economy is expected to show lower growth rates in 1989 and 1990, but investment will remain buoyant.

• Private consumption no longer will be boosted by exceptional increases in real wages.

« Unemployment is expected to increase only slightly in 1990.

• Italy's inflation rate is forecast to remain above that of most of its major trading partners.

• Italy continued to have a large public sector deficit of 11 percent of the GDP in 1988. The public debt equals the country's GDP. The Italian economy cannot sustain such high deficits without pushing up real interest rates and Italy's interest rates already are among the highest in Europe.

Table 1 gives details of the major Italian economic indicators.

3.3.6 Italian Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

Italy began modernizing its telecommunications system in the 1970s by supplying telephones and telephone exchanges to expand the subscriber trunk dialing system installed at that time. In the mid-1970s, however, there was a setback when telephone orders decreased, partly due to the oil crisis and partly because of the Italian government's refusal to raise tariffs in line with inflation.

Two companies were involved in running the telecommunications sector. SIP, a state-controlled company handling most of Italy's telephone traffic, and italtel (formerly known as Sit-Siemens), a state-owned company supplying equi nnent. Both companies are subsidiaries of IRI-Stet holding company. Both companies were badly hit by the deteriorating situation as well as by their own inefficiencies at that time.

In 1981, the Italian government intervened. It reorganized SIP and Italtel, and through these companies began a vigorous catching-up process with the rest of Europe in telecommunications networks. Although Italy has fewer telephones per home, there is already a sophisticated and mature cable system installed based on a 60MHz coaxial trunk system. The Italian communication authorities are also currently installing fiber-optic cables, of which 100 kilometers were scheduled for the period 1981 to 1983.

Today there is still no coherent modernization plan in Italy. This lack makes it difficult for the telecommunications equipment suppliers to develop a supplementary product strategy, because of the potential problems in compatibility with other planned products.

One of the problems is that there are two companies running the telephone network. SIP, a concessionaire of the state, handles telephone services in cities and some trunk calls. ASST, a state-owned company under the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, handles most of Italy's trunk connections. The two companies must reach some kind of cooperation before development work on national data networks and equipment can continue. DATAQUEST believes this cooperation has not been achieved to date.

In the first quarter of 1983, the Italian government decided that two companies, one from the private sector (Ing. C. Olivetti & Company) and one from the public sector (Italtel) were to be responsible for a program to equip Italy with a network of time-division electronic telephone exchanges. The aim of this program is to achieve 60 percent of the

national total by 1986, rising to 97 percent of the national total in 1990. To attain this goal, the Italian telcommunications authority is planning to invest Lit32,000 billion during the next 10 years. Of this amount, Lit29,000 billion is destined to extend the telephone network, and Lit3,000 billion is intended to expand telex, data packet switching, and telematic services. Both the Italian parliament and the Italian Ccanmunist Party would prefer a wide range of systems rather than the two-company solution in the belief that this would create more job opportunities.

Products currently under development for the Italian telecommunications network include packet switching, distributed data processing, videotex, electronic mail, high-speed facsimile, and teleconferencing systems.

Packet- and circuit-switching techniques are currently operating through existing telegraph centers and telephone exchanges. During the 1980s these will be progressively integrated into the new electronic network exchanges.

In 1982 Italtel formed a joint venture with General Telephone and Electronics (GTE) and Telettra (subsidiary of Fiat) to market a range of Proteo telephone exchanges in Italy and in countries that do not have North American standards. The consortium is called Italcom. A second switching system is planned so that Italcom would not have a monopoly. The systan will be manufactured either by FATME (Italian subsidiary of Ericsson) or FACE Standard (Italian subsidiary of ITT).

Italtel has also set up a telematics subsidiary to manufacture equipment for data transmission, office automation, and PABXs (including fiber optics).

Olivetti, traditionally a data processing equipment supplier, is currently an important supplier of telecommunications equipment to connect offices to the outside world. PABXs are made under license frcxn Northern Telecom and Plessey.

Telettra manufactures products for office automation and private networks. Recently the company signed a cooperation agreement with Hewlett-Packard to enable Telettra to provide integrated systems for office autCHnation and telecommunications.

Figures 3.3.6-1 and 3.3.6-2 show DATAQOEST's historical and forecast estimates of Italian semiconductor consumption by telecommunications end use in millions of U.S. dollars and in billions of lire, respectively.

3.6 Italian Design Service Locations

Table 3.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for all of Italy. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufacturers and identifies the class of service provided,

• Category A: Design Center

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor manufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or captive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far the majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate arrays for cell-based ICs (CBICs).

- Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in their own facilities for internal design groups (e.g., Bull, Lucas, MBB, and OUvetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

- An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

4.1 Scandinavian Economic Overview

Highlights on the four Scandinavian countries are outlined below. Tables 1 through 4 give the details of the main economic indicators for Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden.

Highlights of the economic activity in the Scandinavian countries include the following:

• Denmark - The Danish economy recovered in 1989, after two years of recession, but the weak

recovery will not prevent the forecast rise in unemployment in 1990. Better growth prospects for 1991 will halt the increase in the unemployment rate, which is the highest in the region.

Growth in 1989 came entirely from exports, which should continue to rise but at a lower rate. In response to high export growth and slightly increasing domestic demand, investment is expected to rise, especially in 1991.

- Moderate wage settlements will keep increases in imit labor costs below those in the other Scandinavian countries. Inflation rates will be the lowest in the region, preventing deterioration of Denmark's competitive position.

- In spite of a positive trade balance and higher export than import growth, the current account will remain in deficit because of Wgh interest payments on the foreign debt.

• Finland

- As a result of 10 years of growth at an average annual rate of 3.5 percent, the Finnish economy is overheating. Investment expanded vigorously but will be affected adversely by high interest rates and much slower economic growth.

- A tight labor market with skill shortages and decreasing productivity is expected to lead to the highest increase in unit labor costs in the region in 1990.

- High domestic costs will erode Finland's international competitiveness further, resulting in higher import penetration and slow export growth.

Finland's cuixent account deficit is expected to increase further, to more than 4 percent of GDP in 1991.

• Norway - Norway's economy performed much better than expected. Increased production in

the oil sector and high oil prices boosted export earnings. Investment in mainland sectors decreased and is projected to decline considerably in 1990 but increase strongly in 1991.

- Wage rises are expected to be moderate, which will keep unit labor costs in line with the European average. Inflation rates are expected to be below average for OECD Europe, which should help to improve international competitiveness.

Unemployment remains high by Norway's standards. It is the second-highest rate in the region, after Denmark, but only one-half the forecast 1991 rate for Denmark.

- Buoyant energy exports in 1989 turned the current accoimt deficit into a surplus, which is expected to double by 1991.

4.1 Scandinavian Economic Overview

Sweden y- Sweden's GDP growth should be well below the European average in 1991 at

0.9 percent compared with OECD Europe's rate of 2.7 percent Investment showed healthy growth in 1989 but the rate is forecast to decline considerably in 1990 and to be negative in 1991 because of higher domestic interest rates and low economic growth.

- Inflation is a major problem in Sweden. Increases in unit labor costs are expected to be twice as high as the European averages of 3.8 percent in 1990 and 3.4 percent in 1991.

- Loss of market shares and higher import versus export growth because of reduced competitiveness at home and abroad will widen the current account deficit further to approximately 3 percent of GDP in 1991.

4.5.6 Scandinavian Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

SWEDEN

Sweden currently has the highest telephone density in the world. As a result, the cost of converting to an integrated digital network service, a program that began in 1980, will be high and take many years. Ericsson is the main supplier to this program with its AXE stored-program control systems, available since 1977 and used worldwide.

At present, the Swedish telecommunications network uses coaxial cabling exclusively. From 1984, however, fiber-optic transmission will be used in the larger city areas. An Ericsson subsidiary, Sieverts Kableverk, has the advanced technology necessary to carry out limited trials of fiber-optic transmission.

Other products include:

« Datex - a nationwide public data network set up in 1981

* Telepak - a service to handle two-way traffic with countries operating other types of systems

• A fully automated telex network that is expected to coexist with Teletex in the future (In the 1980s telex connections are forecast to increase at a rate of 6 percent per annum.)

The reason for delaying the changeover at the moment is that the existing network is still very efficient. implementing fiber optic cabling was not considered earlier due to the fact that the existing cable network is still very efficient.

For the future the following are planned:

Telefax - a facsimile service

Atesto - a computerized message-switching system

A nationwide alarm system network

A teleconferencing, Datavision, and videotex service

Voice store-and-forward service

4.3.6 Scandinavian Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

Sweden is well-developed in international communications through the Nordic Public Data Network, Tymnet, Telenet, Euronet (which is scheduled for the end of 1983), and the European telecommunications satellite, INTELSAT. In the future, Sweden will have the Tele-X, a multipurpose satellite carrying both TV and data-transmission transponders. Sweden is also covered by several foreign satellite broadcasting systems including German, Russian, French, and British systems.

FINLAND

In Finland, the telephone trunk network plus 86 trunk exchanges have been automatic since 1980. Several digital exchanges are to be introduced, so that by the end of the 1990s around 30 to 50 percent of all telephone traffic will be through digital exchanges.

Finland's public data network started operations in 1981; there is also a limited packet-switched network service.

Fiber-optics are scheduled to be introduced on a mass scale after 1985. Trials are currently taking place in this area.

Other products include:

• Teletex - The annual investment in the telex network during the 1981-1985 period is estimated at $4.8 million.

W Facsimile is also growing, but the growth is expected to decline by the end of the 1980s. it will be superseded by teletex and other electronic mail services.

« Audio conferencing services and a public videotex service are scheduled for the future.

* Mobile radio network is currently one of the largest in the world with more than 28,000 subscribers.

NORWAY

Norway is one of the largest users of telephone and data communications due to the difficult geographic conditions and the importance of offshore industries.

4.3.6 Scandinavian Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

A cellular automatic mobile radio telephone service has recently been introduced and the goal is for 128,300 subscribers by 1993. Pull automation should be completed by 1985.

The telephone network, currently approximately 2 million lines, is planned to reach 2.25 million by the end of 1992, when the telephone density will be 81 per 100 inhabitants.

In 1982 digital transmission in telex circuits and mobile radio service began. Approximately 500,000 digital lines are to be put in until 1986, with digital PABXs serving between exchanges and other points.

The circuit-switched public data network currently numbers approximately 12,000 subscribers, and should rise to 42,700 by 1992.

The Norwegian state broadcasting company, NRK, has recently put forward plans to establish a pay TV service beginning in 1985, using the European communications satellite to which Norway is linked. Other services include microwave links, IbOlARSAT satellite services, land and marine mobile radio telephones, citizen band radios, public teleconferencing service, which now exists in two cities, automatic telex network, national alarm system (with 18,800 subscribers by 1993), radio paging, videotex, and teletex.

DENMARK

In Denmark the telephone communications services are controlled by three regional telephone operating companies and the PTT.

New digital transmission and switching facilities were introduced in 1980. A teletex service is currently being introduced. The number of subscribers is forecast to rise to 300,000 by 1985.

Denmark is about to invest in a broadband cable network for data and TV transmission at an estimated cost of DKr4 billion. Legislation has been passed to remove restrictions on cable TV and enable Denmark to cable up in time for satellite TV transmissions after 1985.

4.3.6 Scandinavian Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

COMMON PLANS

The four Scandinavian telecommunications authorities have a common plan for the introduction of videotex, national facsimile service, automated directory assistance, an alarm network, a data retrieval system for the Danish savings banks, an on-line information system for farmers, and optical transmission systems (currently undergoing tests).

Over the years the four Scandinavian countries have been working closely to coordinate telecommunications services throughout Scandinavia. In 1980 an agreement was signed by all four telecommunications authorities formally establishing their cooperation.

Figure 4.3.6-1 shows DATAQUEST's historical and forecast estimates of Scandinavian semiconductor consumption by telecommunications end use.

4.6 Scandinavian Design Service Locations

Table 4.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for all Scandinavian countries. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufacturers and identifies the class of service provided.

• Category A: Design Center

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor manufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or captive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far the majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate arrays for cell-based ICs (CBICs).

- Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in their own facilities for internal design groups (e.g.. Bull, Lucas, MBB, and Olivetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

- An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

5.1 United Kingdom and Ireland Economic Overview^

Highlights on the British and Irish economies are presented in this section.

United Kingdom

British economy highlights include the following:

• The booming economy has aggravated inflation and the current account deficit.

• Inflation will peak at 7 percent in early 1989, but it might fall to approximately 5 percent by the end of 1989.

• The current account of the balance of payments is expected to show a deficit of £13.1 billion in 1988, increasing to £14.8 billion in 1989 and £16.5 billion in 1990.

• Investment is the most rapidly growing component of demand in the United Kingdom and is expected to continue growing in spite of high interest rates. Manufacturing investment rose by 16 percent in 1988 and will rise by more than 10 percent in 1989.

• Private consumption is forecast to slow in 1989 and 1990.

• Unemployment, after declining by half a million in the 12 months preceding September 1988, will continue to fall, but at a slower rate.

• Wage inflation accelerated, reaching an annual rate of 9.25 percent in August 1988.

Ireland

Irish economy highlights include the following:

• Ireland's economy is expected to show a higher growth rate in 1989 than was previously forecast early in 1988.

• Exports have boomed, and for the first time in 20 years there is a current account surplus. However, any downturn in the Western economies could have serious consequences for the Irish economy because exports account for 67 percent of Ireland's GNP. Nearly 40 percent of Ireland's total trade is with the United Kingdom.

• Inflation fell to 3.2 percent in 1987, the lowest rate in 20 years.

5.1 United Kingdom and Ireland Economic Overview

• The unemployment rate of 19 percent is the second highest in the European Community after Spain and is likely to rise further. The high unemployment is expected to result in modest wage increases.

• The national debt is one of the highest per capita in the world at Ir£26.3 million.

5.3.6 U.K. and Irish Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

UNITED KINGDOM

The U.K. government first outlined its plans to liberalize the U.K. telecommunications market in 1980. At that time the U.K. Post Office had a statutory monopoly by which it had the sole right to supply all telecommunications equipment and services. This situation created little incentive to meet customer demand.

The 1981 British Telecommunications Act divided the Post Office into two corporations—telecommunications (called British Telecom or B.T.) and mail with Giro. Telecommunications monopoly was reduced in three areas—customer equipment, services on the B.T. network, and the network itself.

B.T. set up a division called British Telecc^ Enterprises to supply customer equi^nnent. B.T. also formed national networks supplying advanced digital communication services to compete with Mercury, the private sector network set up by a private consortium headed by Cable and Wireless pic, Barclays ^terchant Bank, and British Petroleum. Competition is expected to be fierce in this growing sector.

By liberalizing B.T., the U.K. government hopes to stimulate growth of both new and existing suppliers and to establish the U.K. market as one of the most open in the world. The U.K. government plans that B.T. will eventually become a private company. With this in mind it plans to sell 51 percent of B.T. to private investors in the autumn of 1984. The sale is expected to raise £4 billion.

The dilemma currently facing the U.K. government is how to organize the market so that companies can ccnnpete effectively with B.T., which is also their biggest potential customer. Although the U.K. telecommunications market is still restricted, there are signs that foreign companies are being attracted. GTE has formed a joint venture in equipment with Ferranti. Motorola is expanding radio communications production in the United Kingdom. Mitel and Northern Telecom are planning to open plants in the United Kingdcnn in the near future.

To give suppliers a chance to develop competitive new products, B.T. agreed to spread its liberalization over three years.

Customer equipment is being liberalized in stages—starting with telephone handsets and ending with private exchanges (PABXs). Telephone sets are now available on the open market. Other products freely available include extension telephones, answering machines, repertory dialers, and modems. By far the largest customer and supplier of these products is B.T., so much so that at the start of 1983 other manufacturers unsuccessfully tried to persuade the government to restrict

5.3.6 U.K. and Irish Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

B.T.'s share of the customer equipment market to 25 percent. The government is accused of unfair competition by holding on to B.T.'s monopoly through enforced partnership agreements with independent competitors. At the time of writing, the issue remains unresolved.

The United Kingdom has the world's third largest telephone network. Three companies control approximately 90 percent of the public network market—General Electric Company (GEC), Standard Telephones and Cables (STC), and Plessey. These three companies, together with British Telecom, have developed a British digital electronic exchange called System X, which is currently available for installation. Subsequently, in 1982, STC withdrew frc»n this consortium, thereby clearing the way for it to potentially offer the iTT-developed System 12 competitive system. ITT originally owned STC. It is now the major shareholder, with approximately 35 percent of the shares, but under a longterm agreement still maintains R&D and product agreements with STC, thereby allowing STC access to ITT product developments and technology.

One of B.T.'s main areas of develocnnent is an all-digital public telephone system, centered round System x digital exchanges. By 1984, B.T. will stop buying metal cables and switch to fiber-optics. There will be a completely digital main transmission network by the early 1990s and the entire network will be finished by the beginning of the next century.

In 1984 British Telecom will introduce its megastream and kilostream services at more than eighty locations. Megastream provides a 2 million bits-per-second service and kilostream 2.4k, 4.8k, 9.6k, 48k or 64k bits-per-second digital circuits.

Facsimile machines are not really in demand in the united Kingdom. However, Teletex is popular (this is when characters of any type and size are transmitted directly from computer to computer over the telephone lines). A data rate of 2,400 bits per second is to be adopted, and the service should be available by the end of 1983.

The pilot integrated services digital network (ISDN) is due to operate in early 1984. Initially, access will be from 10 local areas in London and three provincial cities. This service will comprise a single-line integrated digital access (IDA) with a 64/8/8k bit-per-second link or a multiline IDA with voice and nonvoice switching via a 2-MByte/Second link with up to 30 channels. The 64/8/8 lines can easily be updated to 64/64/16 in due course.

5.3.6 U.K. and Irish Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

IRELAND

In Ireland, the Irish Department of Posts and Telegraphs is spending £500 - 600 million (U.K. pounds sterling) on a major developnent program to improve the telephone system and make it one of the most modern in Europe. DATAQUEST believes that to date, the modernization program has not been fulfilled

5.6 UK and Irish Design Service Locations

Table 5.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for all UK and Irish countries. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufacturers and identifies the class of service provided.

• Category A: Design Center

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor manufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or captive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with woricstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far the majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate arrays for cell-based ICs (CBICs).

- Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in their own facilities for internal design groups (e.g.. Bull, Lucas, MBB, and Olivetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

- An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

6.1 West Germany Economic Overview

fflGHLIGHTS OF THE WEST GERMAN ECONOMY

Highlights of the West German economy include the following:

• Prospects for economic growth are very positive. The 1989 growth rate was 4.3 percent, higher than the OECD average for the first time since 1979. The above-average growth will continue in 1990 and 1991 but at a lower rate.

• Private consumption growth was weaker than expected but will increase more strongly in 1990 and 1991, stimulated by tax cuts.

• Business investment showed unexpected buoyancy caused by big increases in company profits, strong export growth, and rising capacity utilization. Lower growth rates are forecast for 1990 and 1991, but investment growth will be the second highest after France of the big four European economies and higher than U.S. investment growth.

• Unit labor cost increases in the business sector were very moderate in 1989; after two years of low domestic cost pressure, however, there is an upward trend.

• Inflation is increasing in line with faster economic growth. The 3 percent rate for 1990 is high by German standards.

• Export growth continued in response to strong competitiveness. Exports increased in volume by 10.1 percent in 1989 and are forecast to rise 7.7 percent in 1990 and 7.5 percent in 1991, but the strength of the deutsche mark could affect exports and thus economic performance.

• Imports increased less in volume (7.0 percent) than exports in 1989 but are projected to rise more than exports at 8.5 percent in 1990 and 8.0 percent in 1991.

• Trade balance and current account will continue to record a surplus. The current-account surplus is expected to amount to 5.5 percent of GNP in 1991.

Table 1 gives details of the main West German economic indicators.

6.3.6 West German Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

The German Bundespost was a traditionally conservative institution. The rigidity of the system became apparent in the late 1970s when the West German telecommunications industry realized it was being overtaken by the major advance to digital technology. Since then the Bundespost has played an important role in planning for the future. The Bundespost is heavily involved in promoting an integrated system of voice, video, and data transmission.

The Bundespost has monolopy over telecommunications services and the national Post Office. This does not really hamper development as the Bundespost tries to have as businesslike an approach as possible. Indeed, it is looking for new sources of revenue as the market for telephone connections becomes saturated. DATAQUEST believes there will be liberalization of some equipment and services such as electronic mail.

The Bundespost's plan is to link most of the country's telephone circuits with fiber-optic cables and in that way get a uniform development of the national teleccMranunications network. It will thus be able to incorporate a wide range of transmission services into a single integrated services digital network (ISDN).

There are several new products and services either in operation or under development to benefit from all the ISDN can offer. These include:

• Fiber-optics, of which 1,800 kilometers have been introduced into existing networks in 1982. There are plans to replace the entire subscriber network (of 40 million kilometers) with optical fiber cables over the next 30 years. Another 500,000 kilometers of cable are due to be laid down by 1985. The budget for cable laying was recently increased from M4 400 million to EM 1 billion a year. Cabling is progressing more rapidly than originally planned.

• Broadband optical fiber is to be tested in seven cities and the Bundespost is meeting half the cost of DM 300 million. Tests will take place in Hamburg, Hanover, Dusseldorf, Stuttgart, Nuremberg, Munich, and West Berlin. The tests are forecast to last until 1986.

• Five companies plan a joint venture in West Berlin to produce 100,000 kilometers of fiber cable annually from the end of 1984. The companies are AEG-Telefunken, Philips (of Germany), SEL (ITT's subsidiary), Kabelmetal Electro, and Siecor (Siemens's subsidiary).

6.3.6 West German Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

• Digital switching will be incorporated into the trunk network in 1984/85, and into local networks in 1985. Final orders for electromechanical systems are scheduled for 1990. Datex-P, an X.25-based packet-switching network service, and Datex-L, a circuit-switched data network, are to be introduced. The two Datex systems will eventually be integrated to form an integrated data and text network.

• Teletex, which was pioneered by several major telecommunications companies and the Bundespost. DATAQUEST believes that in June 1982, 1,000 teletex terminals were installed, with 40,000 expected by 1987, and 130,000 by 1992. Telefax, a public facsimile service, is also being actively promoted.

• Videotex, of which major trials have been under way since 1980. The number of users were 40,000 in 1983 and are forecast to rise to one million in 1986.

• The Bildschirmtext, which enables subscribers to call up textual data on a television screen. After trials since 1980, the system is to be extended nationwide in the near future. One million subscribers are targeted for the end of 1986.

• Itemized phone bills and nationwide toll-free dialing systems for airline reservations and similar services. The telephone terminal itself, will have a display, loudspeaker, and memory.

• DATAQUEST believes there is a scheme under proposal for private operators to offer additional services like electronic mail on the public network.

• Space satellite program, radio, and TV programs, and other data will be transmitted from 1987. Companies involved in this area include ANT Nachrichtentechnik (formerly AEG), Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm, Siemens, SEL. Two satellites, one as a reserve, are to be launched. A third satellite will be kept on the ground as a replacement.

The German Bundespost has issued letters of intent on its ISDN system. SEL (ITT) and Siemens are involved in this area through manufacture of digital exchanges. Field trials are due to start in late 1984. Local exchanges are being developed with two interfaces—one for the conventional analog telephone with an analog/digital converter at the local exchange, and the other the 64/64/16k bits per second for teletex, fax, and video. The Bundespost hopes to have the equipment available by 1987.

6.6 West German Design Service Locations

Table 6.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for all of West Germany. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufacturers and identifies the class of service provided.

• Category A: Design Center

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor msuiufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or c£q)tive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far the majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate arrays for cell-based ICs (CBICs). Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in their own facilities for internal design groups (e.g.. Bull, Lucas, MBB, and OUvetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

7.1 Rest of Europe Economic Overview

Key economic highlights of the four Rest of Europe countries are outlined as follows. Tables 1 through 4 give the details of the main economic indicators for Austria, Portugal, Spain, and Switzerland, respectively.

AUSTRIA

Highlights of the Austrian economy include the following:

• Austria achieved higher gross domestic product (GDP) growth, lower inflation, and lower unemployment than most other European countries despite dated industrial structures.

Fixed investment is expected to continue to increase in 1989 and 1990 but at a lower growth rate than in 1988. Better profits, improved domestic demand, and exports contributed to increased investment in machinery and equipment.

The 1989 tax reform played an important part in stimulating investment and boosting business confidence. It should also boost households' disposable incomes leading to higher private consumption growth in 1989 than in 1988. Unemployment, low by international standards, is expected to fall further as a result of improved employment prospects.

Exports are the main growth factor because of high foreign demand for raw materials and intermediate goods. But as imports rise more than exports, the current account of the balance of payments shows a slightly increasing deficit. In 1990, this deficit is expected to amount to not more than 0.75 percent of GDP.

• Austria's economic performance depends on reducing government subsidiaries, improv­ing business and industrial efficiency, and creating a more competitive climate.

PORTUGAL

Highlights of the Portuguese economy are as follows:

• GDP growth remains rapid. Fixed investment, particularly in the private sector, is the dominant growth factor. Productive investment will continue to be boosted by EC assistance.

• Private consumption is buoyant, helped by a rise in real disposable income due to increased employment. But the expansion in private consumption is likely to be restricted by more stringent credit conditions and expected tax increases.

• The high inflation rate, almost double the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Europe average (5.25 percent in 1989), is a major problem. Rises in unit labor costs are among the highest in the OECD, more than twice the growth rate of OECD Europe 1989 at 3.75 percent. Buoyant credit growth also has contributed to the high inflation rate.

• Imports are growing faster than exports. Therefore, current account deficit is likely to widen further to more than Esc 350 billion in 1990, which represents 4.5 percent to 5.0 percent of GDP.

• Portugal's industry needs further investment, diversification, and modernization to stabilize economic growth.

SPAIN

Highlights of the Spanish economy are as follows:

• GDP continues to grow at one of the highest growth rates in OECD Europe. Private investment, supported by rising profits and foreign capital inflow, is the principal growth factor.

• Private consumption is expected to increase further in 1990 because of higher disposable household income, but it should increase at a lower rate than in 1988 and 1989.

• Inflation is forecast to be higher in 1989 and 1990 than in 1988 because of stronger growth in unit labor costs and import prices.

7.1 Rest of Europe Economic Overview

Job creation led to a drop in the unemployment rate, still the highest in the OECD and almost double the average for OECD Europe (9.75 percent in 1989 and 1990). But GDP growth and fiirther employment creation might bring the unemployment rate down to 16 percent by the end of 1990.

Import growth far exceeds export growth because of strong domestic demand. The current balance of payment, wWch showed a surplus in 1987, will record an increasing deficit. In 1989, the external deficit may reach approximately 2 percent of GDP.

Real interest rates are expected to remain high to reduce the inflation factor. Spanish industry is cash rich and buoyant, but the credit measures could affect industrial investment, which generates real GDP growth.

SWITZERLAND

Highlights of the Swiss economy are as follows:

• GDP in 1988 grew 3 percent, the sixth successive year of economic growth, but expansion is forecast to be less in 1989 and 1990.

• Business investment will continue to grow strongly due to favorable profitability, strong foreign demand, and high-capacity utihzation. In exporting companies, capacity utiliza­tion has reached nearly 92 percent.

• Employment continued to rise and the unemployment rate dropped to 0.7 percent of the labor force, the lowest rate in the OECD.

• Unit labor costs are expected to rise, but the impact on the economy should be reduced because of rising productivity.

• Inflationary pressures are the uncertain element in the Swiss economy, but balanced budgets, propensity to save, and anti-inflationary policies will contribute toward main­taining a sound economy.

• Buoyant export markets and improved overall competitiveness should continue to stimulate the export economy. Higher import than export growth will lead to a further deterioration in the trade deficit. However, the surplus on services will contribute to the overall current account surplus, which is forecast to decrease in 1989 and 1990 to approximately 2.5 to 3.0 percent of GDP.

7.3.6 Rest of Europe Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

PORTDGAL

In Portugal the telephone network is underdeveloped. The Portugese government is therefore investing more than $1.6 billion over the next few years to modernize the telephone and telex services. The aim is to provide 30 telephones for every 100 inhabitants by the year 2000, and to install advanced electronic equijsnent.

Currently in the experimental stage are:

Computer data and facsimile systems

Electronic mail systems

Video text systems

Text transmission systems

Teleconferencing systems

Portugal is scheduled to join the European telecommunications broadcasting satellite system in 1984.

Portugal's future aim is:

• To convert the entire telecommunications system to a flexible integrated microchip network, in order to facilitate communication between people, people and machines, and machines and machines

• To replace metal cable by optical fibers

• TO enable private subscribers to be linked to telecommunications satellites.

The Portugese authorities' medium-term plan is to prepare the substructure to be able to implement the above three points.

7.3.6 Rest of Europe Telecommunications Semiconductor Market

SWITZERLAND

In 1982 Switzerland installed a packet-switching network. It is expected that teletex, videotex, and data transmission services will evolve from this.

The country is due to install the single integrated services digital network (ISDN) in 1985. Installation time is expected to take 18 months.

Emphasis is being placed on the expansion of mobile and licensed private radio communications. Other areas include:

• PCM transmission for point-to-point data communication

• National car telephone and popular radio-paging systems

• City Call service, linking private on-site systems with a nationwide paging network

SPAIN

In Spain, telephone and data transmission services are monopolized by a non-public-sector company called Compania Telefonica Nacional de Espana (CTNE). CTNE was originally formed as an ITT subsidiary in the 1920s; it is now controlled by private shareholders (53 percent) and the Spanish government (47 percent).

CTNE is committed to buying Spanish products. The company currently makes about 90 percent of its purchases from Spanish suppliers.

CTNE has joint venture agreements with Telettra and Ericsson (through Intelsa). The company recently acquired Amper, a Spanish producer of telephone sets.

CTNE is currently preparing a four-year (1983-1986) investment plan of Pt58Q0 billion. The plan is to develop microelectronics and software technology as well as related products and services. There are four strategies: projects that CTNE will do alone, projects on which it will collaborate with other companies, projects that it will contract out, and projects that other companies will develop on their own.

7.5 Rest of Europe Plant Locations

The maps on pages 7.5-3, 7.5-4, and 7.5-5 shows plant locations for semiconductor manufacturers in the Rest of Europe. The map key on page 7.5-2 identifies the respective companies, gives their locations, and lists the primary manufacturing activities conducted at each site by major product category. Not all manufacturing steps are performed at every site for every product category shown, but the applicable combination of design, wafer fabrication, assembly, and test is shown for each product category. No design activity appears on the matrix unless another manufacturing step also occurs at that site.

7.6 Rest of Europe Design Service Locations

Table 7.6-1 lists semiconductor design service locations for the Rest of Europe. Each company entry shows the major products designed at each site for both merchant and captive manufacturers and identifies the class of service provided.

• Category A: Design Center

- A full design center has all the hardware and software design tools, in addition to engineering resources, necessary to design standard products as well as ASICs.

- Design centers are the domain of semiconductor manufacturers, although the semiconductors produced may be for merchant or captive consumption.

• Category B: Design Service Locations

- A design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. By far the majority of design service locations are used for designing ASIC gate arrays for ceU-based ICs (CBICs).

- Most design service locations are owned by semiconductor vendors that rent workstation time to customers for a fee; however, some of the larger OEMs have invested in their own facilities for internal design groups (e.g.. Bull, Lucas, MBB, and Olivetti). Essentially, these are captive design service locations.

• Category C: Independent Design Service Locations

- An independent design service location is equipped with workstations capable of performing design, schematic capture, and functional simulation of a device. However, the location is owned by a third party independent of semiconductor vendors and is not dedicated to a specific OEM.

- Third-party design services provide training and rent workstation time for ASIC gate array and CBIC design. They tend to support several vendors' ASIC products.

Exchange Rate Tables

Dataquest's European exchange rate tables include data from all Western European countries, each of which has different and variable exchange rates against the US dollar. Where applidable, Dataquest estimates are prepared in terms of local currencies before conversion (where necessary) to US dollars. Dataquest uses exchange rates taken from the Wall Street Journal, which are in turn taken from the Barikers Trust Co. All exchange rates previous to 1990 were sourced from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

All forecasts are prepared using fixed exchange rates based on the last complete historical quarter (currently the fourth quarter of 1990). To maintain consistency across all its analyses, Dataquest makes ongoing adjustments to its forecasts for these currency changes during the year. As a result of this policy, forecast growth rates can become distorted when comparing dollar growth rates with European currency growths.

Table 1 provides a summary of yearly average exchange rates in local currency per US dollar for each European region and Japan from 1979 to 1990. Included in Table 1 is the European Currency Unit (ECU). This unit, which was established in March 1979, is the weighted average of the currencies of all member countries of the European Community (EC). It is calculated by the IMF from each country's gross national product (GNP) and foreign trade. Table 2 shows the quarterly exchange rate for 1990 for each of these regions.

Also included is the Semiconductor Industry Weighted Average (SIWA). This unit is based on the semiconductor consumption of each European country featured here (EC and non-EC members) and uses the base year 1980 equal to 100 as a reference point. The SIWA is useful for interpreting the effect of European currency fluctuations with respect to the US dollar, specifically for the European semiconductor industry.

Dataquest's European local currency forecasts and historical data has previously been recorded using the SIWA as a measure of local currency. Since September 1990 we have changed to using ECUs. As it is becoming increasingly conunon for companies to publish their annual reports in ECUs, all fuhire local currency forecasts prepared by Dataquest will be published in ECUs.
