Disclosed are a method and a computer program storage product for dynamically stabilizing a stream processing system. The method includes receiving at least one computing resource allocation target. A plurality of downstream processing elements and an upstream processing element are associated with at least one input buffer. Each of the downstream processing elements consumes data packets produced by the upstream processing element received on an output stream associated with the upstream processing element. A fastest input rate among each downstream processing element in the plurality of downstream processing elements is identified. An output rate of the upstream processing element is set to the fastest input rate that has been determined for the plurality of downstream processing elements.
摘要:
A technique for identifying a defect in an object produced by a controllable process. A first type of data generated as a result of production of the object by the controllable process is obtained. A second type of data generated as a result of production of the object by the controllable process is obtained. The first type of data and the second type of data are jointly analyzed. A defect is identified in the object based on the joint analysis of the first type of data and the second type of data. By way of example, the controllable process comprises a semiconductor manufacturing process such as a silicon wafer manufacturing process and the object produced by the semiconductor manufacturing process comprises a processed wafer. The first type of data comprises tool trace data and the second type of data comprises wafer image data. The tool trace data is generated by a photolithographic tool.

A technique for analyzing two or more data streams respectively generated from two or more components of a controllable process includes the following steps. In a first step, a statistical analysis is performed on each of the two or more data streams to generate first analysis results in the form of respective statistical results for the two or more data streams. In a second step, at least a portion of the statistical results from at least one of the two or more data streams is combined with at least a portion of the statistical results from at least another one of the two or more data streams to yield second analysis results. The controllable process is adjustable based on at least one of the first analysis results and the second analysis results.
