Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed toward systems and methods that execute legacy semiconductor applications using a non-legacy controller. In some embodiments a hardware abstraction layer and/or an emulator can be used to provide communication between a non-legacy operating system and legacy components including legacy applications. In some embodiments various methods and/or devices can be used to emulate and/or translate communications between legacy and non-legacy components.

Claim (Index 2):
A semiconductor process control system comprising:\n one or more processors; a first operating system running on the one or more processors; a legacy application developed to operate in conjunction with a legacy semiconductor process control system and a legacy operating system different from the first operating system, wherein the legacy application is configured to interact with at least one legacy fabrication tool; and a hardware abstraction layer and/or emulator layer configured to provide communication between the first operating system and the legacy application; wherein the hardware abstraction layer and/or emulator layer is configured to emulate the legacy semiconductor process control system on a register-to-register basis, such that the legacy application can be performed on the semiconductor process control system without source code changes to the legacy application.
