Since last decade, the cluster tool has been mainstream in modern semiconductor manufacturing factories. In general, the cluster tool occupies 60% to 70% of production machines for advanced technology factories. The most characteristic feature of this kind of equipment is to integrate the relevant processes into one single machine to reduce wafer transportation time and prevent wafer contaminations as well. Nevertheless, cluster tools also increase the difficulty of production planning significantly, particularly for shop floor control due to complicated machine configurations. The main objective of this study is to propose a short-term scheduling model. The noteworthy goal of scheduling is to maximize the throughput within time constraints. There are two modules included in this scheduling model—arrival time estimation and short-term scheduling. The concept of the dynamic cycle time of the product’s step is applied to estimate the arrival time of the work in process (WIP) in front of machine. Furthermore, in order to avoid violating the time constraint of the WIP, an algorithm to calculate the latest time of the WIP to process on the machine is developed. Based on the latest process time of the WIP and the combination efficiency table, the production schedule of the cluster tools can be re-arranged to fulfill the production goal. The scheduling process will be renewed every three hours to make sure of the effectiveness and good performance of the schedule.

Software estimation involves meeting a huge number of different requirements, such as resource allocation, cost estimation, effort estimation, time estimation, and the changing demands of software product customers. Numerous estimation models try to solve these problems. In our experiment, a clustering method of input values to mitigate the heterogeneous nature of selected projects was used. Additionally, homogeneity of the data was achieved with the fuzzification method, and we proposed two different activation functions inside a hidden layer, during the construction of artificial neural networks (ANNs). In this research, we present an experiment that uses two different architectures of ANNs, based on Taguchi’s orthogonal vector plans, to satisfy the set conditions, with additional methods and criteria for validation of the proposed model, in this approach. The aim of this paper is the comparative analysis of the obtained results of mean magnitude relative error (MMRE) values. At the same time, our goal is also to find a relatively simple architecture that minimizes the error value while covering a wide range of different software projects. For this purpose, six different datasets are divided into four chosen clusters. The obtained results show that the estimation of diverse projects by dividing them into clusters can contribute to an efficient, reliable, and accurate software product assessment. The contribution of this paper is in the discovered solution that enables the execution of a small number of iterations, which reduces the execution time and achieves the minimum error.

Estimating the travel time of a path is of great importance to smart urban mobility. Existing approaches are either based on estimating the time cost of each road segment which are not able to capture many cross-segment complex factors, or designed heuristically in a non-learning-based way which fail to leverage the natural abundant temporal labels of the data, i.e., the time stamp of each trajectory point. In this paper, we leverage on new development of deep neural networks and propose a novel auxiliary supervision model, namely DeepTravel, that can automatically and effectively extract different features, as well as make full use of the temporal labels of the trajectory data. We have conducted comprehensive experiments on real datasets to demonstrate the out-performance of DeepTravel over existing approaches.
