Abstract: An enhanced method of reorganizing a relational database is provided. The method uses batch processing to perform the steps of providing an online database having a plurality of authoritative data stored there within; running the online database in an archive log mode for storing archival data capable of restoring all online database activity since running the online database in the archival mode; creating an off-line database by copying the plurality of authoritative data stored within the online database to the off-line database; performing a maintenance operation on the off-line database; taking the online database offline upon completion of the performance of the maintenance operation; copying the plurality of archival data from the online database to the off-line database when the online database is taken offline; recovering the off-line database by applying the copied plurality of archival data copied from the online database; and converting the off-line database to an online database.

Abstract: Systems and methods for inking process management. An inking tool generates inking map data for a first wafer. A first computer connects to an inking tool to receive the inking map data. A second computer connects to the first computer, receives the inking map data from the first computer, generates an inking map record according to the inking map data, stores the inking map record in a storage device, and generates an inking map report for the first wafer according to the inking map record.
