The progress of the People’s Republic of China in developing indigenously or accessing foreign sources of intellectual property critical to the design and manufacturing of leading edge process nodes, including electronic design automation technology. Activity of Chinese firms with respect to the production of semiconductors that are not legacy semiconductors, including any identified export diversion to evade export controls. Any observed stockpiling efforts by Chinese firms with respect to semiconductor manufacturing equipment, substrate materials, silicon wafers, or other necessary inputs for semiconductor production. An analysis of the relative market share of different Chinese semiconductor manufacturers at different process nodes and the estimated increase or decrease of market share by that manufacturer in each product category during the preceding year. A comprehensive summary of recruitment activity of the People's Republic of China targeting semiconductor manufacturing engineers and managers from non-Chinese firms. An analysis of the capability of the workforce of the People's Republic of China to design, produce, and manufacture of semiconductors that are not legacy semiconductors and relevant equipment.
