1. Design and implement a production scheduling
policy that minimizes schedule disruption
associated with rerunning products that have
experienced low/no yield.
2. Revamp inventory safety stocking policies
that reflect the statistical variability of
the process and followup testing.
The information necessary to support and
accomplish the goals above will be the
makeup of a master thesis to be completed
Spring 1997.
1. The scheduling policy has been implemented
with success.
2. The safety stocking policy remains to be
clearly defined.
