Semantic Web Technologies for data Interoperability: Ontology, Schema, and Linked Data

Abstract

Data interoperability is the key to utilize data within the domains as well as across the domains. Semantic Web technologies are developed in order to make information on the web both human and machine understandable. They are now realized as the core technologies to make data both human and machine understandable too. Providing the semantic layer for data is not just good for human understandability but also good for interoperability within and across the domains by bridging semantic gaps among data. In this talk, we introduce our two practices for data interoperability with Semantic Web technologies. One is building of ontologies for the specific domain. We built the ontologies for agriculture in order to make information and data in the domain more shareable and aggregative. The other is IMI: Common Vocabulary Framework where the schema for the basic concepts are provided to standardize open data.

Presentation Title

Secured and Operation Oriented Recipe Management on SEMI Standard

Abstract

To make manufacturing line even smarter, fab data should be shared in wider area by more agents, and even higher security management scheme is essential. Also, for data consistency, data should be managed in centralized way per category.
In semiconductor factories, how to handle equipment recipes in conjunction with the wafer manufacturing operations is the most important information, and it should have good operability and consistency and be well protected. However, recipes in equipment are not well protected as the current GEM300 does not have any standardized security management scheme on recipes. The examples of the issues are:
- Distributed user authentications at large number of equipment
- Recipes are managed in a single recipe space in equipment without any partition per usages
- Recipe operations are performed at the same security level in a single recipe space, though they have different purposes and different security levels.
In the tutorial, the details of recipe operation, issues and the solution on SEMI Standard will be explained.
