  • Patent number: 10685319
    Abstract: A simulator is configured to simulate the fulfillment of orders by nodes. Each node has an inventory of products and is capable of shipping the products to destinations in response to receipt of a corresponding order. The simulator divides the nodes into groups and assigns a different priority to each group based on input provided by a user to the simulator to generate an ordered sequence of priorities. The simulator maintains safety stock data corresponding to each node that indicates minimum quantities of the products required to be present at the corresponding node. The simulator selects a current priority of the sequence and next simulates a first group among the groups having the current priority fulfilling the orders for a given product among the products while a quantity of the given product at each of the nodes in the first group is below the minimum quantity in the corresponding safety stock data.

  • Publication number: 20200118836
    Abstract: A semiconductor manufacturing process is provided. A trench is formed in a semiconductor structure and an oxide layer is deposited on sidewalls of the trench. A solid-state by-product layer is formed on surfaces of the trench by introducing a first etchant gas to react with a naturally occurred oxide layer at the bottom of the trench and the deposited oxide layer. The solid-state by-product layer has a thickness on the bottom less than a thickness on the sidewalls. A second etchant gas is introduced into the trench to react with the solid-state by-product layer, thereby providing a thinned solid-state by-product layer on the sidewalls to protect the deposited oxide layer. By a heating process, the thinned solid-state by-product layer is removed from the sidewalls of the trench, exposing the deposited oxide layer and a surface portion of the semiconductor structure in the trench.
