Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to semiconductor manufacturing technology and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for optimizing a set of operations in a semiconductor capital equipment processing system. Background technique [0002] Hundreds of millions of dollars are often spent designing and operating semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Optimizing throughput and reducing costs are therefore critical to profitability. However, the basic equipment handling systems within these devices often require considerable human intervention, which can create the potential for process variances and even outright operational errors. [0003] Most semiconductor basic device processing systems are typically controlled by a sophisticated computer including an operating software program in which the user is provided via an interface the ability to send requests to the device and receive output information from the device. These process steps are...
