Depending on they type of semiconductor firms you are talking about (i.e. fabs, fabless developers, compoenet manufactureres, IC firms, etc...), I have seen estimates of 10-15% compound annual growth over the near term.  Semiconductors, by there nature, are not end consumer products.  The volatility in this sector is due to the demand fluctuations in the end product sectors, such as computers, batteries, cell phones, etc...  Also, the integrity of the supply chain in both the upstream and downstream directions contributes to how much raw material semis can purchase and how many units they can ship out the door.  Finally, huge investments in R&D spending are necessary to keep pace with the changing technology and many of these ventures fail.  Some are wildly successful and produce large returns.  This is semiconductor economics in a nut shell.  There's a ton more information if you look up semiconductor organizations.

I believe what is meant is another way of rephrasing this statement:\nDifferent sections/locations of your store generate different level of sales revenue. My understanding of this issue would be an assumption that success is measured by the revenue per square footage of the space in the store. Therefore, the dispalys/items strategically positioned, let's say, at the forefront of the store, at the first vizual "striking" point of the customer will tend to be responsible for possibly >50% of sales. Why? Because customers will react by first buying from this "visual hits". The "hits" at that may also have higher price than, let's say, the "on sale" items that one can position at the back of the store (typical practice in many retail outlets, by the way - e.g. Walmart).

Customer is king for the business. Without customers the business does not have a reason to survive. Understanding the customer and their needs should be the primary driver of R&D Activities. Market needs are also important and must be studied carefully to supplement knowledge needed to direct R&D activities.

That is difficult to trace, but I would not be suprised if it was a company called Centra Software (which has since been bought by Saba).  They were a realtime collaboration software company that has sadly been pretty much driven into the ground by miserable management.  At one time they were an e-learning pioneer that rivaled WebEx and Interwise for online collaboration marketshare.

A global product is one that satifies a need in many cultures.  Take telephones, I wish someone would.  They are cross cultural because they are a means of communication, regardless of language.  Bicycles are used around the world.  They are a source of transportation.  Are you getting the picture.

Product Positioning is a marketing process made up of segmenting the market, targeting one or more segment/s of the market and positioning your product/service in the market.\nProduct positioning can be defined as the place a company wish its product/service to occupy in the consumer's minds relative to competing products/ services.\nFor example BMW cars are positioned in the cusumer's mind as cars made for sporty successful people who wish to distinguish themselves.

You can buy cell phones that do all these things now. Also handheld laptops (distinct from palmtops) are now available. \n\nFailing all that, write up you idea, and send it to someone you know that has a product development background for comment if nothing else.
