초록

반도체 산업은 임베디드 소프트웨어를 통해 운영 통제되는 자동화설비를 통해 첨단상품을 생산한다. 반도체를 생산하는 로봇과 각종 설비의 임베디드 소프트웨어 유지보수는 제품의 품질과 신뢰성 제고를 위한 필수적인 과정으로 반도체 장비의 라이프 사이클을 고려할 때 상당히 높은 비중을 차지하는 활동영역이다. 그러나 이 분야에 대한 학술적 관심사는 그리 높지 않는데, 본 연구에서는 반도체 웨이퍼 생산장비를 구동하는 소프트웨어 관련 문제로 보고된 사건을 대상으로 502개의 데이터를 무작위 추출방식으로 수집하여 임베디드 소프트웨어의 유지보수 노력에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석해 보았다. 결론으로 실무적인 시사점도 제시하였다.

The semiconductor industry develops and maintains software embedded in computer-controlled tools and facilities, to process and manufacture high-tech products. Upgrading embedded softwares for semiconductor processing robots and machinery is one of the basic activities that must be performed in order to maintain product quality and integrity. Maintenance and enhancement of embedded software consume a major portion of the total life cycle cost of a system. However, the area has been given little attention in the literature. 502 maintenance and enhancement cases, related to embedded softwares in wafer processing machines, were selected at random for analysis. Practical implications are also discussed.
