In an effort to make your production line more efficient, look at the different ways to lay out the production line or overall manufacturing plant. Two of the most common layouts are the process ...

The strategic administration of production processes and personnel to maximize output, minimize errors and continually enhance product quality come under the general banner of "operations management." ...

Chung-Kuan Cheng received a Ph.D. degree inelectrical engineering and computer sciences from University ofCalifornia, Berkeley in 1984. From 1984 to 1986 he was a senior CADengineer at Advanced Micro ...

Process plant layout optimisation is a multidisciplinary endeavour that integrates economic efficiency with rigorous safety assessments to ensure robust and reliable industrial operations. This field ...

Once upon a time, integrated circuits (ICs) were built by the same companies that designed them. The design of an IC was tightly integrated with the manufacturing processes available within each ...

Businesses are all over the map when it comes to how their processes work. If you thought that the business process re-engineering (BPR) wave of the 1990s sorted all of this out, you’re wrong. A lot ...

Process design kits consist of a set of files that typically contain descriptions of the basic building blocks of the process. They are expressed, algorithmically, as Pcells. These descriptions are ...

When tasked with creating products that provide meaningful and relevant experiences to users, UX designers must consider usability and function, as well as design and branding. And the only way to ...

Designers rely on the accuracy of Process Design Kits (PDK¡¦s) for their IC designs. This paper describes independent verification of the PDK accuracy using a low-cost Die Level Process Monitor (DLPM) ...
