An alternative approach to measures the application of dispatching rule in the wafer foundry

This paper focusing on the method to measures the application of dispatching rule in the wafer foundry. This is because dispatching rule play a critical role to determine the success of higher throughput, minimum cycle time, corresponded to turn ration of the WIP level and meeting on time delivery. In the implementation, it uses Advanced Productivity Family (APF), commercial software that integrated with Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for algorithm computational to calculate the compliances of the dispatching rule that is applied in the wafer foundry manufacturing shop floor. From the literature review, it is believed that until now there is non-formal measurement is being done to measure the compliance of the dispatching rule due to wafer processing complexity. This result will help to measure 100% of the compliance of the dispatching rule for the success of the implementation of any dispatching system in any wafer fabrication facilities. This implementation has successfully implemented in the real wafer fabrication.
