The diffusion area is particularly important to the smooth operation of a wafer fab.

In our second case study, we consider a more complex problem where a trade-off must be made between the cycle time of high priority lots.

Timelinks are one of the most challenging a aspects of a wafer fab to navigate and significantly increase the complexity of scheduling it.

A common example of RL is self-driving cars, but its easy to see how it could be successful in other environments, such as a wafer fab.

This week, Daniel Cifuentes Daza, one of our Optimization Engineers here at Flexciton, explores the problem of allocating reticles.

The fragility of reticles means they must be managed conservatively to avoid damage. However, this inadvertently clashes with a fab's KPIs.
