Abstract
As demand for AI hardware increases, semiconductor industry policies, through subsidies, tax credits, and targeted financing, are expanding, leading to uneven distribution of policy support documents and strategic frameworks, as well as long implementation delays. This paper proposes a replicable measurement process to identify semiconductor-related interventions in global trade alerts through iterative validation. Each indicator is categorized according to value chain objectives and policy tools, providing a dataset and evaluation framework for semiconductor research.
