  • Publication number: 20240020895
    Abstract: A chart generation method includes: extracting history information for sensor data detected from an apparatus that corresponds to the state of the apparatus at the time when a specific event has occurred; generating a chart representing time-series data obtained by statistically processing the extracted sensor data history information with reference to a memory unit that defines a statistical processing technique; and displaying the generated chart on a display unit.

  • Publication number: 20210397169
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus detects an abnormality sign in a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus. The apparatus includes: a sensor data collector configured to acquire sensor waveform data with respect to a sensor value axis and a time axis measured by a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus that is executing a process according to a same recipe; a monitoring band calculator configured to calculate each monitoring band for the sensor value axis and the time axis used in a waveform monitoring method from a predetermined number or more of the sensor waveform data; and an abnormality sign detector configured to monitor a waveform of the sensor waveform data using each monitoring band for the sensor value axis and the time axis and detect an abnormality sign of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10734291
    Abstract: Disclosed is an abnormality detection apparatus including: a collection unit that collects state information indicating a state of each part of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus in a predetermined cycle; a storage unit that stores the state information collected by the collection unit as a log for each predetermined unit; an arithmetic unit that generates a monitoring band for monitoring the state of each part of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, based on the log; and a determination unit that determines whether the state of each part of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus is abnormal, based on the state information and the monitoring band.
