Claim One:
1. A method for predicting at least one feature of at least one product being manufactured, the method comprising: receiving, from at least one sensor installed in at least one equipment performing one or more manufacturing process steps, at least one measurement of the at least one feature of the at least one product being manufactured; selecting one or more of the at least one received measurement of the at least one feature of the at least one product; estimating additional measurements of the at least one feature of the at least one product at a current manufacturing process step; creating a computational model for predicting future measurements of the at least one feature of the at least one product, based on the selected measurement and the estimated additional measurements; predicting the future measurements of the at least one feature of the product based on the created computational model; and outputting the predicted future measurements of the at least one feature of the at least one product, wherein the step of receiving, the step of selecting, the step of estimating, the step of creating, the step of predicting and the step of outputting are performed by a computing system that includes at least one memory device and at least one processor device connected to the memory device.
