    Abstract: A dynamically-reconfigurable production line includes an item-interaction unit and an item-identification unit configured to read item data from an item approaching the item-interaction unit. On the basis of the item data, a processor accesses a memory to select particular configuration data stored therein provided by the item-identification unit. The processor then causes an actuator to reconfigure the production line consistent with the particular configuration data.

    Abstract: A method for improving the operation of machines or appliances having an associated machine computer and being connected to at least one further computer over a communication network, includes transmitting operating data and/or order data from the machine computer to the further computer through the communication network and storing the operating data and/or order data in the further computer. The further computer compares the performance of at least one machine with the performance of further machines, and the further computer calculates improved settings for at least one of the machines on the basis of the performance comparison and provides the settings for the purpose of setting the machine.

    Abstract: A method of adjusting wafer process sequence includes steps of collecting production parameters for a plurality of lots; selecting a plurality of key parameters from the production parameters, wherein the key parameters at least includes a processing sequence; defining a formula to obtain an epsilon value; categorizing the lots into groups according to the epsilon value and the minimum point number by using density-based spatial clustering of application with noise (DBSCAN); and adjusting the processing sequences of the lots in the groups. Thereby, the lots with the same process recipe can be continuously or simultaneously sent into a machine, thereby reducing replacement of process recipes or shortening machine idle time.

    Abstract: A system for flexible operation of an automated plant, comprising at least one computer and a plurality of field devices for determining and/or monitoring physical or chemical, process variables. The computer and the field devices are embodied to be network capable and are connected, with one another via a network. A unique address in the network is associated, with each computer and each field device and communication occurs via a defined network protocol. Associated with the network capable computer is at least one plant model, which virtually maps plant topology, plant function and interaction of the field devices with one another and with the computer, wherein the plant model is so embodied that it is adapatable flexibly to different plant topologies, different plant functions and/or different interaction of the field devices with one another and with the computer, and wherein the computer controls via the plant model the automated plant corresponding to current plant topology, current plant function and/or current interaction of the field devices with one another and with the computer.
