Genetic Algorithm for Job Scheduling with Maintenance Consideration in Semiconductor Manufacturing Process

This paper presents wafer sequencing problems considering perceived chamber conditions and maintenance activities in a single cluster tool through the simulation-based optimization method. We develop optimization methods which would lead to the best wafer release policy in the chamber tool to maximi...
