Modeling and Analysis of Re-entrant Production Systems

This paper presents a model and analysis of a re-entrant production line with finite buffers and unreliable machines. Semiconductor device and liquid crystal display (LCD) fabrication processes are characterized as a re-entrant process, in which a similar sequence of processing step is repeated seve...
