Intelligent Fab

Advances in AI are making it possible for semiconductor manufacturers to automate, optimize, and innovate in new ways. At IBM, we’re developing new data and AI tools to help semiconductor manufacturers harness the power of AI for competitive edge across planning, running, and streamlining fab operations. Our researchers are developing new methods for collecting and aggregating rich data sets from the fab including tools, equipment measurement, and sensor data. We are also creating AI applications that can be used for simulation and decision optimization, analytics and business insights, talent enablement and sustainable operations. These new tools will leverage our industry leading Manufacturing Execution System, SiView, which integrates with enterprise systems to facilitate tighter supply chain and manufacturing linkages, and respond more quickly to market changes.
