Fluctuations of work-in-progress (WIP) levels cause variability of cycle time and often lead to productivity losses in semiconductor wafer fabrication plants. To identify sources ...
Emulation is a very powerful tool for testing and debugging control code/logic in an office environment rather than on the plant floor. Through the use of emulation, the actual co...
Facility layouts of existing or proposed production systems often form the basis of a dynamic simulation study to prove the design concept and to determine if the required through...
This paper proposes a novel subspace approach towards direct identification of a residual model for fault detection and isolation (FDI) in a system with non-uniformly sampled mult...
Simulation models are often developed for a single purpose. However, once a model is accepted by management and other stake-holders, it is quite common and desirable to wish to br...
