Abstract

Semiconductor manufacturing production scheduling is a challenging task due to process complexity that includes the assignment of customer orders to front opening unified pods (FOUPs), FOUP batch processing, parallel machines, and re-entrant flow. A network-based optimization model and a column generation (CG) heuristic are presented for this problem to minimize the weighted completion time of customer orders. Computational results show that the CG heuristic obtains solutions that are very close to/better than a mixed-integer program-based heuristic (MIP heuristic) for problem instances without order ready times. In the problem instances with order ready times, CG solutions are within 11% of MIP heuristic solutions, but are obtained in seconds rather than hours.
