Abstract In the failure analysis (FA) process, a large amount and variety of data are involved: product information, images created by lab equipment, requester and accounting information, etc. Instead of using separate tools for image handling, sample tracking, report creation, and email, workflows can be improved by integrating all these functions in one single IT system. This paper describes the process and result of developing a dedicated FA software tool. The discussion provides details of the specification, main features, and architecture of the system. This system has been rolled out at 15 labs and is used by approx. 500 analysts and several thousands of company-internal FA customers. The flexible architecture made the adaptation to all the different business processes possible and provides a future-proof solution.

Abstract Application of a formal Failure Analysis metaprocess to a stubborn yield loss problem provided a framework that ultimately facilitated a solution. Absence of results from conventional failure analysis techniques such as PEM (Photon Emission Microscopy) and liquid crystal microthermography frustrated early attempts to analyze this low-level supply leakage failure mode. Subsequently, a reorganized analysis team attacked the problem using a specific toplevel metaprocess.(1,a) Using the metaprocess, analysts generated a specific unique step-by-step analysis process in real time. Along the way, this approach encouraged the creative identification of secondary failure effects that provided repeated breakthroughs in the analysis flow. Analysis proceeded steadily toward the failure cause in spite of its character as a three-way interaction among factors in the IC design, mask generation, and wafer manufacturing processes. The metaprocess also provided the formal structure that, at the conclusion of the analysis, permitted a one-sheet summary of the failure's cause-effect relationships and the analysis flow leading to discovery of the anomaly. As with every application of this metaprocess, the resulting analysis flow simply represented an effective version of good failure analysis. The formal and flexible codification of the analysis decision-making process, however, provided several specific benefits, not least of which was the ability to proceed with high confidence that the problem could and would be solved. This paper describes the application of the metaprocess, and also the key measurements and causeeffect relationships in the analysis.

The presented article deals with the issue of solving bottlenecks in the logistics flow of a manufacturing company. The Tx Plant Simulation software tool is used to detect bottlenecks and deficiencies in the company’s production, logistics and transportation systems. Together with the use of simulation methods and lean manufacturing tools, losses in business processes are eliminated and consequently flow throughput is improved. In the TX Plant Simulation software environment, using Bottleneck analyzer, bottlenecks were defined on the created simulation model and a method of optimizing logistics flows was designed and tested by introducing the Kanban pull system. This resulted in an improvement and throughput of the entire logistics flow, a reduction in inter-operational stocks and an increase in the efficiency of the production system as a whole.

Yoga Farm is a Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) that focuses on catfish breeding that is still doing business processes manually. With this process, information received by related parties is very difficult to obtain quickly. Therefore, the product is still not widely known, and customers are still few because the system used in sales and promotions still uses a manual system. The research method used is qualitative. This study aims to create a sales information system recommended at Yoga Farm and design using Unified modeling language (UML) for the recommended business processes. Customers will get product information in real-time, products can be widely recognized, and the number of Yoga Farm customers can increase. Based on the results of this study, adoption of a web-based sales information system can certainly make it easier to get the latest information quickly, can expand the market and can also facilitate customers in the transaction. For future research, this research can be used as a reference for conducting similar studies at other MSMEs to increase sales

Interactive Advertising

Electronic commerce (or e-commerce) is the popular term for doing business electronically. According to Haag, Cummings, and McCubbrey (1998), for businesses, electronic commerce includes performing transactions with customers over the Internet for purposes such as home shopping, home banking, and electronic cash use; performing transactions with other organizations through the use of electronic data interchange (EDI); gathering information relating to consumer market research and competitors; and distributing information to prospective customers through interactive advertising, sales, and marketing efforts. Benefits of e-commerce to companies include a wider potential market (i.e., global access); lowering of transaction costs; increase in the speed of transactions; improved economies of scale; minimization of human intervention in business processes; and unlimited access to product information for customers (Sesan, 2000; Wood, 2003). While a few developing countries such as Costa Rica are making inroads into electronic commerce (Travica, 2002), many others are slow in its adoption. For example, a study, which rated 42 developing countries on their “e-readiness,” found that Taiwan and Estonia had emerged as leaders among developing countries in the ability to conduct e-commerce, whereas Russia, much of the Middle East, and Africa were lagging behind (Anonymous, 2000). One of the countries included in the study but that rated poorly in its e-commerce efforts is Nigeria. In this articl, we shall be discussing the challenges being faced by the country as it grapples with the adoption of e-commerce.

Scan Chain Design

Scan chain design is a widely used design-for-testability (DFT) technique to improve test and diagnosis quality. However, failures on scan chain itself account for up to 30% of chip failures. To diagnose root causes of scan chain failures in a short period is vital to failure analysis process and yield improvements. As the conventional diagnosis process usually runs on the faulty free scan chain, scan chain faults may disable the diagnostic process, leaving large failure area to time-consuming failure analysis. In this paper, a SAT-based technique is proposed to generate patterns to diagnose scan chain faults. The proposed work can efficiently generate high quality diagnostic patterns to achieve high diagnosis resolution. Moreover, the computation overhead of proving equivalent faults is reduced. Experimental results on ISCAS’89 benchmark circuits show that the proposed method can reduce the number of diagnostic patterns while achieving high diagnosis resolution.

The paper deals with risks and uncertainties that are related to business processes. The risks and uncertainties (risk factors) can significantly influence organizational performance, value creation and long term-sustainability. Managers are often puzzled with making decisions in the environment of breakthrough discontinuities. The main outcome of the paper is the presentation of purposefully developed software tool that uses stochastic simulation of risks and uncertainties of business processes to support making optimum managerial decisions. This software is able to simulate any process risk factors that are describable by a mathematical model. The model was tested on the examples of production and investment cases. The research applied Business Process Modelling Notation Approach (BPMN) as well as mathematical and stochastic modelling. In addition, contextual interviews with company managers and risk specialists were used to get unbiased, reliable, and professional information on determination and analysis of process risk factors. The research was also supported by the evidence provided by the case study that illustrates software based decision-making process relating to opting for technology variant.
