Abstract :
In a typical FAB factory, various types of products are produced around the clock. Complex constraints and re-entrant flows make it difficult for a human scheduler to generate a production schedule based on his/her experience and knowledge. This paper introduces a simulation based FAB scheduler, SeePlan®, which was developed by the authors. A Korea based semi-conductor and LCD maker designated SeePlan as a standard advanced planning and scheduling solution and has used in several FAB factories around the world.
