A data model for planning in the semiconductor supply chain

摘要

A recent gathering of academic and industry researchers has identified the need for a reference model for planning and control in semiconductor supply chains. The purpose of this model is to provide a common language for researchers working on different aspects of modeling and analysis of the semiconductor manufacturing supply chain, facilitate better communication and provide a common starting point for performance assessment across different analysis approaches to the planning and control problems. This paper introduces a data model to advance the discussion of this reference model. The data model is generic in that it is not specific to semiconductor manufacturing, but has been used in practical settings to drive analysis and application development to serve several planning functions in a major semiconductor manufacturing company.
