半導體產業協會(SIA) 於2016年7月正式宣告ITRS國際半導體技術藍圖時代的結束。其後SIA 和 SRC (半導體研究公司,Semiconductor Research Corporation)於2017 年 3 月聯合發表了名為《半導體研究機會:產業願景和指南》報告(Semiconductor Research Opportunities:An Industry Vision and Guide)。報告中指出:「前進的道路並不像摩爾定律時代那樣清晰,然而,巨大的經濟和社會效益潛力 — 其中一些是可以預見的,但有一些只能想像 …… 在這個關鍵點上,需要產業界、政府和學術界攜手合作,才能持續進步成長。」

The Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap activities are sponsored by IEEE Electronics Packaging Society (EPS), SEMI, IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS), IEEE Photonics Society and the ASME EPPD Division with the intention of expanding the roadmap collaboration to other IEEE Technical Societies that share interest in the Heterogeneous Technology Roadmap as well as to organizations outside IEEE that share this common vision for the roadmap. A document with definition of the mission, purpose, structure and governance for this Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap program was prepared and approved.
