Abstract :
One of the most serious challenges in the semiconductor memory business is the rapid price decline. We develop an allocation scheme that determines the die (chip) allocation among different memory products. The allocation takes into account available die capacity, customer service requirements, as well as price declines and demand distributions among different products
