In semiconductor manufacturing it is useful to design control charts to be sensitive to anticipated assignable causes. Process knowledge can be used to develop summaries for run-to-run control that are more sensitive to problems than traditional approaches. As the number of measurements recorded fro

Abstract
Membrane filtration processes are often operated cyclically, where one cycle comprises a filtration and a backwashing phase. Due to the complex mechanisms involved, these processes are mostly operated with fixed values of the manipulated variables, leaving much of the economical potential unexplored. A modelβbased runβtoβrun process control approach is introduced, in which the manipulated variables are optimized after each filtration cycle. The approach is evaluated in a case study on submerged membrane filtration in wastewater treatment. A simple, computationally inexpensive process model is developed. The resulting modelβbased controller is tested in a simulation environment employing a validated reference model. It yields excellent results with respect to prediction quality and optimization results. Β© 2007 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2007

Run-to-run control of a plasma etch process for 8 inch diameter silicon wafers at Digital Semiconductor is determined by maintenance of targeted values of post-etch metrology variables. The post-etch quality variables are extremely sensitive to variation in the etch chamber conditions due to fluctua

Owing to customer demands and short product life cycles, manufacturing trends have shifted towards a wide variety of mixed products with small batch sizes. It is difficult to apply traditional control charts efficiently and effectively in such environments, and it is not necessary to plot a control
