Midterm Planning to Minimize Deviations From Daily Target Outputs in Semiconductor Manufacturing

Heuristic Algorithm for a WIP Projection Problem at Finite Capacity in Semiconductor Manufacturing

“…Due to the intractability of LP models, they are generally combined with heuristics such as genetic algorithms [36] or decomposition techniques as Benders [37] or Lagrangian relaxation ( [30], [34]) to reduce execution time. Besides, approximate methods have also been widely used to develop either infinite or finite capacity planning systems for the semiconductor industry.…”
