Mathematical models in integrated-circuit manufacturing: A review
In this paper, we review mathematical models that have been developed for improving the performance of a wafer fab that faces yield uncertainty and system uncertainty such as machine failures. Specifically, we focus on models that deal with the design and operational issues arising from a wafer fab....

Summary: | In this paper, we review mathematical models that have been developed for improving the performance of a wafer fab that faces yield uncertainty and system uncertainty such as machine failures. Specifically, we focus on models that deal with the design and operational issues arising from a wafer fab. We classify these models into two main categories: yield models and wafer-design models. These models address different strategic and planning issues that related to yield uncertainty and system uncertainty in IC manufacturing, and can be used to predict system performance of a specific production plan or system design. Besides the predictive power, these models can be used for optimization. |
