The increasing demand for on-time delivery is forcing semiconductor manufacturers to seek more efficient schedules of machines and other resources to meet targets while making effective use of excess capacities. This paper presents the modeling and solution methodology of lithography machine scheduling with load balancing and reticle expiration consideration for the bottleneck process of semico...

and carefully kept surgical records of the Mayo Hospital, Jeypore, Rajputana, from 1881 to the present year. Colonel T. H. Hendley, C.I.E., was Superintendent of the Dispensaries and of the Mayo Hospital, Jeypore, from 1881 to early in 1898, and performed nearly all the operations of lithotomy and litholapaxy (except when on leave) during that period; I acted for him for eighteen months in 1891...

Integrated circuit design advances into the nanoscale era towards more compact, higher performance and lower power devices. However, the large number of transistors per die has entailed an increase of device variability due to subwavelength lithography and layout complexity impacting manufacturability. Therefore, regular designs has emerged as an alternative cell design style towards more litho...

The Portofino Conglomerate (PC) cropping out in the Eastern Liguria is an approximately 500 m thick, very gently folded succession mainly composed of poorly bedded and mostly matrix-supported conglomerates. It stratigraphically rests on Helminthoid Flysch (UA3) thrusted onto Antola Unit. We vertically distinguished three ruditic litho/petrofacies: (i) Paraggi (fP) with carbonate clasts from suc...

Zircon grains are reasonably ubiquitous in river banks and beach placers as detrital minerals, including along the ~1700 km long Indian east coast, from Odisha state to of Kerala. Zircons located eastern part Odisha, India, were studied using LA-ICP-MS order delineate their geochemical characteristics. Hf (mean = 11270 ppm) Y 1064 two most abundant trace elements found within zircon compared ot...

Abstract This article investigates bypassing the inversion steps involved in a standard litho-type classification pipeline and performing directly from imaged seismic data. We consider set of deep learning methods that map data into classes, trained on two variants synthetic data: (i) one which we image using local Radon transform to obtain angle gathers, (ii) another start subsurface-offset ba...

kajal kaolin deposit is located ~20 km northwest of hashtjin, ardebil province. field evidence and laboratory investigations show that the deposit is an alteration product of ignimbrites, tuffs, and trachy-andesites of eocene age. according to mineralogical data, the major rock-forming minerals include kaolinite, montmorillonite, polygorskite, orthoclase, zeolite (stilbite), quartz, and chalced...

We have investigated the conductance of long quantum wires formed in GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs heterostructures. Using realistic fluctuation potentials from donor layers we have simulated numerically the conductance of four different kinds of wires. While ideal wires show perfect quantization, potential fluctuations from random donors may give rise to strong conductance oscillations and degradation of th...

Abstract This communication reports novel geochemical and geochronological data of granite from the southeastern part Bastar Craton, Central India. The studied samples are leucocratic in appearance composed quartz, K-feldspar, plagioclase feldspar, biotite decreasing order abundances. Apatite, sphene, zircon occur as accessory minerals. SiO2 Al2O3 content sample varies between 61 69 wt.% 13 15 ...
