Abstract :
Statistical process matching plays a central role in detecting and minimizing special and common cause variations in semiconductor manufacturing. Performing automated statistical matching across many fabs, thousands of tools and millions of data points at acceptable performance and scalability requires a complex automation infrastructure. In this paper, we cover the main features of Intel´s fab automation infrastructure that facilitates a multitude of offline statistical analyses.
