3. A Factory-Wide EDA Data Quality Performance Simulation for APC Capabilities Analysis
Topic: Process Improvement
Published: 10/1/2008
Authors: Xiao Zhu, Dhananjay Anand, Sulaiman Hussain, YaShian Li-Baboud, James Moyne
Abstract: Realizing benefits from real-time process control requires in-situ monitoring of process environment, equipment, and the wafer to maximize opportunities for process improvement and minimizing effects of process deviations. The data gathered from the ...

5. Allocation of Manufacturers through Internet-based Collaboration for Distributed Process Planning
Topic: Process Improvement
Published: 8/1/2006
Authors: Jungyub Woo, Hyunbo Cho, Boonserm Kulvatunyou
Abstract: The pursuit of lower cost, shorter time-to-market, and better quality has led to a shift toward global production in today?s competitive business environment. This shift, however, forces manufacturing enterprises to have separate design houses and ma ...

6. An Approach to Ontology-Based Intention Recognition Using State Representations
Topic: Process Improvement
Published: 10/7/2012
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Sebti Foufou, Stephen B. Balakirsky
Abstract: In this paper, we present initial thoughts on an approach to ontology/logic-based intention recognition based on the recognition, representation, and ordering of states. This is different than traditional approaches to intention recognition, which us ...

7. Carbon Weight Analysis for Machining Operation and Allocation for Redesign
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7560
Topic: Process Improvement
Published: 12/16/2009
Authors: Gaurav Ameta, Mahesh Mani, Rachuri Rachuri, Kevin W Lyons, Shaw C Feng, Ram D Sriram
Abstract: The objective of this research is to explore and develop a new methodology for computing carbon weight (CW) - often referred to as carbon footprint, in manufacturing processes from the part level to assembly level. In this initial study we focused on ...

8. Dynamic Properties for Modeling and Simulation of Machining: An Update of Results from the NIST Pulse-Heated Kolsky Bar
Topic: Process Improvement
Published: 5/7/2009
Authors: Timothy J Burns, Steven P Mates, Richard L. Rhorer, Eric P Whitenton, Debasis Basak
Abstract: The NIST Pulse-Heated Kolsky Bar Laboratory has been developed for the measure-ment of dynamic properties of metals, primarily for application to the study of high-speed machining processes. Because the work material in these processes can be subject ...

9. Inferring Intention Through State Representations in Cooperative Human-Robot Environments
Topic: Process Improvement
Published: 6/7/2013
Authors: Craig I Schlenoff, Anthony Pietromartire, Zeid Kootbally, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Thomas Rollin Kramer, Sebti Foufou
Abstract: In this paper, we describe a novel approach for inferring intention during cooperative human-robot activities through the representation and ordering of state information. State relationships are represented by a combination of spatial relationships ...
