Abstract: A method for polishing a substrate having a metal film thereon is described. The substrate has metal interconnects formed from part of the metal film. The polishing method includes performing a first polishing process of removing the metal film, after the first polishing process, performing a second polishing process of removing the barrier film, after the second polishing process, performing a third polishing process of polishing the insulating film. During the second polishing process and the third polishing process, a polishing state of the substrate is monitored with an eddy current sensor, and the third polishing process is terminated when an output signal of the eddy current sensor reaches a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: In an ATM virtual path switching node, upon being notified of a current virtual path by a virtual path monitoring unit, a link fault determination unit compares the number of faulty current virtual paths with a predetermined threshold value. When the number of faulty current virtual paths is equal to or larger than the threshold value, a link fault is determined, and a message communication unit transmits/receives a link fault notification signal to/from another ATM virtual path switching node. When the number of faulty current virtual paths is smaller than the threshold value, a current virtual path fault is determined, and the message communication unit transmits/receives a virtual path fault notification signal to/from another ATM virtual path switching node. The message communication unit transmits a switching control signal for designating switching from the current virtual path to a stand-by virtual path.
