Sophia Keil – författare

This open access book reports on cutting-edge electrical engineering and microelectronics solutions to foster and support digitalization in the semiconductor industry. Based on the outcomes of the European project iDev40, which were presented at the two first conference editions of the European Advances in Digital Transformation Conference (EADCT 2018 and EADTC 2019), the book covers different, multidisciplinary aspects related to digital transformation, including technological and industrial developments, as well as human factors research and applications. Topics include modeling and simulation methods in semiconductor operations, supply chain management issues, employee training methods and workplaces optimization, as well as smart software and hardware solutions for semiconductor manufacturing. By highlighting industrially relevant developments and discussing open issues related to digital transformation, the book offers a timely, practice-oriented guide to graduate students, researchers and professionals interested in the digital transformation of manufacturing domains and work environments.

​Sehr kurze Produktlebenszyklen und ein starker Preisverfall fordern von Unternehmen der Hightech-Branche eine hohe Innovationsgeschwindigkeit. Diese resultiert in einem kontinuierlichen Veränderungsbedarf der Produkte und Produktionsprozesse. Daher sind Halbleiterfabriken fast ausnahmslos nach dem Verrichtungsprinzip organisiert, welches zwar eine hohe Flexibilität aufweist, jedoch zu hohen Beständen, langen Durchlaufzeiten und einer geringen Termintreue führt. Sophia Keil zeigt auf, wie mittels einer fünfstufigen Planungsmethode der Wandel von Produktionssystemen hin zur Flussorientierung erfolgen kann. Die Anwendung der Methode in der Unternehmenspraxis zeigte Durchlaufzeitreduzierungspotenziale im Bereich von 40-50 Prozent.
