摘要
Compared to most discrete manufacturing processes, semiconductor wafer fabrication poses unique planning and scheduling challenges. This article describes the simulation-based finite capacity planning and scheduling software, a tool that allows human planners to make better decisions. Significant improvements to cycle time, throughput, and equipment utilization can be made without adding additional equipment and personnel. The future of these systems is in real-time control and improved diagnostic capability.
