In order to improve the prompt delivery reliability of the semiconductor wafer fabrication
system, a big data analytics (BDA) is designed to predict wafer lots' cycle time (CT), which is …

The dynamic wafer workshop gives rise to strong fluctuations of cycle time (CT) followed by
earliness or tardiness penalty. Comprehending these fluctuations is a major challenge as …

Cycle time forecasting (CTF) is one of the most crucial issues for production planning to
keep high delivery reliability in semiconductor wafer fabrication systems (SWFS). This paper …

Job cycle time is the cycle time of a job or the time required to complete a job. Prediction of
job cycle time is a critical task for a semiconductor fabrication factory. A predictive model …

This study jointly optimizes the production capacity and safety stocks in a serial production–
distribution system supplying multiple products under a guaranteed service approach (GSA) …

Abstract Many Queueing Theory and Production Management studies have investigated
specific effects of variability on the performance of serial lines since variability has a …

Computer simulation has increasingly become popular for analysis of systems that cannot
be feasibly changed because of costs or scale. This work proposes a method to construct an …

Based on real operational data from the Robert Bosch GmbH, we investigate influencing
features for waiting time estimation of operations in high product-mix/low-volume …

Stochastic kriging (SK) methodology has been known as an effective metamodeling tool for
approximating a mean response surface implied by a stochastic simulation. In this paper we …

Production planning optimization remains a major challenge in almost all industries,
particularly in high-tech manufacturing. A critical task to support such optimization is …
