Abstract

ReDS, a distributed intelligent manufacturing scheduling system, was initially designed as a requirement-driven scheduling system and has evolved into a real-time distributed scheduling system. It is currently running at several VLSI manufacturing sites. The authors trace its development history and analyze the present system architecture for future system development. This report paper provides: (1) the development history of ReDS, (2) the distributed intelligent system approach of ReDS, and (3) the future research for the next generation of ReDS
