ABSTRACTIn this paper, we study the impact of critical queue time (CQT) constraints in semiconductor wafer fabrication facilities (wafer fabs). Process engineers impose CQT constraints that require wafers to start a subsequent operation within a given time window after a certain operation is completed to prevent native oxidation and contamination effects on the wafer surface. We equip dataset 2 of the SMT2020 testbed with production control logic to avoid CQT constraint violations. Therefore, two different CQT-aware dispatching rules and a combination of a lot stopping strategy with these rules are proposed. The effect of the production control strategies is investigated by means of a simulation study. We show that the number of CQT violations can be reduced without large deteriorations of global performance measures such as cycle time and throughput. |
