These proceedings consist of plenary rapporteur talks covering topics of major interest to the high energy physics community and parallel sessions papers which describe recent research results and future plans.

These proceedings review the progress in most aspects of semiconductor physics, including those related to materials, processing and devices. The conference continues the tradition of the ICPS series and these volumes include state-of-the-art lectures. The plenary and invited papers address areas of major interest.These volumes will serve as excellent material for researchers in semiconductor physics and related fields.

It has been widely recognized that the "new physics" results from a high energy collider are related to the detector capabilities, and that future detec tors must solve the problems presented by the new environment. Vertex detectors, in particular, will have to sustain enormous rates, have a great resistance to radiation damage, while retaining good spatial accuracy. Promising technologies are emerging, and gaseous detectors are improving: this workshop was intended as a point of reference towards future detectors, with particular emphasis on experimental results achieved so far. We wish to thank the Ettore Majorana Center for the splendid hospitality in Erice; and the secretaries of the conference, R. Nania and G. Anzivino for their hard work in collecting and organizing these proceedings. F. Villa Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Stanford University v CONTENTS Tracking at 1 Te V A.
