SEMI Smart Manufacturing Initiative

Leveraging predictive modeling and other efficiency-enhancing innovations, Digital Twins promise to optimize semiconductor design, manufacturing processes and equipment maintenance while improving overall operational efficiency.

Despite its great promise to help streamline semiconductor manufacturing, AI has largely failed to deliver on its potential despite significant investments in data infrastructure and talent. Understanding the reasons behind this failure is a critical step towards unlocking AI and associated ROI.

Demand for hi-tech manufactured goods is at an all-time high and is expected to grow significantly in our new digital age, COVID-19 economy. This is especially true for semiconductor chips. Chip manufacturers have been working to meet this demand by building new factories and by optimizing...
