Preventive Maintenance (PM) activities in semiconductor manufacturing are important for equipment availability and reliability. Since PMs are down events that remove a tool from service, when to conduct a PM and how to group multiple PM tasks into sh

We present a new set of simulation models, organized in a testbed. The aim of the testbed consists in providing researchers with a platform able to credibly represent the complexity of modern semiconductor manufacturing. The testbed is open to public

In the semi-conductor industry, factories ramp their production capacity in parallel with tool (machine) installations. Ramp capacity, and subsequently wafer starts, are aligned with additional installs of the most expensive tool. Subsequently, start

Recently, several papers on preventive maintenance (PM) have shown that segregation of PM’s can be beneficial when it comes to improving factory performance. However, these were limited to either cases of equal PM segregation and/or without conside

This paper deals with a short-term production plan of a single toolset during a shift at a semiconductor fabrication plant. We propose a cost-based optimization model that seeks to minimize the cost of the shift while meeting the following conditions

Preventive Maintenance activities (PMs) are essential for semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Since PMs are typically non-preemptive, they are usually modeled as high priority customers. We examine the accuracy of a popular approximation for the m

In this paper, we first show that true equipment utilizations may be significantly lower than what is recorded by existing monitoring systems in semiconductor fabrication operations, owing to various process and tool-related delays that occur during

In semiconductor manufacturing, the process of short-term production planning requires setting clear and yet challenging and doable goals to each operation and toolset in the process flow per each product type. We demonstrate the complexity of this p
