Patent ID: 8229587

Claim:
A semiconductor fabrication facility productivity system, comprising: one or more processors; and one or more computer-readable media configured to store instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: collecting fabrication facility data for a fabrication facility; identifying, in the fabrication facility data, data patterns; identifying, based on the data patterns, a decrease in performance of an operation of the fabrication facility at a first time relative to performance of the operation at a second time; implementing, in response to identification of the decrease in the performance, experiments, wherein an experiment comprises one or more modifications to conditions of the fabrication facility at the first time; identifying, based on comparing results of the experiments, an experiment with a result specifying an increase in the performance of the operation relative to other of the results for other of the experiments; and executing, at a third time when conditions of the fabrication facility correspond to at least one of the conditions at the first time, a command to implement at least one of one or more modifications of the experiment identified by the one or more processors.
