Many data mining techniques have been proved useful in revealing important patterns from large data sets. Especially, data mining techniques play an important role in a customer data analysis in a financial industry and an electronic commerce. Also, there are many data mining related research papers in a semiconductor industry and an automotive industry. In addition, data mining techniques are applied to the bioinformatics area. To satisfy customers' various requirements, each industry should develop new processes with more accurate production criteria. Also, they spend more money to guarantee their products' quality. In this manner, we apply data mining techniques to the production-related data such as a test data, a field claim data, and POP (point of production) data in the automotive parts industry. Data collection and transformation techniques should be applied to enhance the analysis results. Also, we classify various types of manufacturing processes and proposed an analysis scheme according to the type of manufacturing process. As a result, we could find inter- or intra-process relationships and critical features to monitor the current status of the each process. Finally, it helps an industry to raise their profit and reduce their failure cost.

FlexRay는 높은 유연성과 신뢰성을 갖는 고속의 통신프로토콜이다. 자동차회사와 반도체회사들에 의해 개발되었고 x-by-wire 시스템을 이용하여 차량 내 LAN으로 구현된다. FlexRay는 차량 내 전자 장치간의 통신을 위해 고속의 시리얼 통신, time triggered bus, fault tolerant 통신을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 SDL(Specification and Description Language)을 이용하여 FlexRay communication controller와 bus guardian 프로토콜 규격과 기능 부분을 설계한다. 다음 설계한 SDL 소스를 기반으로 Verilog HDL을 이용하여 하드웨어로 설계한다. 설계한 FlexRay 시스템은 Samsung $0.35{\mu}m$ 공정을 이용하여 합성하였으며, 그 결과 76 MHz의 속도로 동작하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 FlexRay 시스템의 동작을 확인하기 위해 차량에 적용되는 자동차 경보 시스템에 응용하였다. FlexRay 시스템은 ALTERA Excalibur ARM EPAX4F672C3을 이용하여 검증하였으며 성공적으로 동작함을 확인하였다.

Despite surging interests in analyzing business processes, there are few scientific approaches to analysis and redesign of organizational structures which can greatly affect the performance of business processes. This paper presents a method for deriving and analyzing organizational relations from process models using social network analysis techniques. Process models contain information on who performs which processes and activities, along with the assignment of organizational units such as departments and roles to related activities. To derive social relations between organizational units from process models, three types of metrics are formally defined: transfer of work metrics, subcontracting metrics, and cooperation metrics. By applying these metrics, various relations among organizational units can be derived and analyzed. To verify the proposed method and metrics, they are applied to standard process models of the semiconductor and electronic, and automotive industry in Korea. This paper presents a taxonomy for diagnosing organization structure based on the presented approach. The paper also discusses how to combine analyses in the taxonomy for redesign of organizational structures.

In this paper, static and fatigue bending strengths and failure mechanisms of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastics) laminates having impact damages have been evaluated. Composite laminates used for this experiment are CF/EPOXY orthotropy laminated plates, which have two-interfaces $[0^0_ 4/90^0_4]_{ sym}$. A steel ball launched by the air gun collides against CFRP laminates to generate impact damages. The damage growth during bending fatigue test is observed by the scanning acoustic microscope (SAM) and also, the fracture surfaces were observed by using the SEM (scanning electron microscope). In the case of impacted-side compression, fracture is propagated from the transverse crack generated near impact point. On the other hand, fracture is developed toward the impact point from the edge of interface-B delamination in the case of impacted-side tension. Eventually, failure mechanisms have been confirmed based on the observed delamination areas and fracture surfaces.

DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharges) plasma is often used to clean the surface of semiconductor. The cleaning performance is affected mainly by plasma density and duration time. In this study, the plasma density is predicted by coupled simulation of flow, chemistry mixing and reaction, plasma, and electric field. 13.56 MHz of RF source is used to generate plasma. The effect of dielectric thickness, gap distance, and flow velocity on plasma density is investigated. It is shown that the plasma density increases as the dielectric thickness decreases and the gap distance increases.

Purpose It is a major goal to improve the product yields during production operations in the manufacturing industry. Therefore, factory is trying to keep the good quality materials and proper production resources, also find the proper condition of facilities and manufacturing environment for yields improvement. Design/methodology/approach We propose the hybrid framework to analyze to dataset extracted from MES. Those data is about the alarm information generated from equipment, both measurement and equipment process value from production and cycle/pitch time measured from production data these covered products during production. We adapt a data warehousing techniques for organizing dataset, a logistic regression for finding out the significant factors, and a association analysis for drawing the rules which affect the product yields. And then we validate the framework by applying the real data generated from the discrete process in secondary cell battery manufacturing. Findings This paper deals with challenges to apply the full potential of modeling and simulation within CPPS(Cyber-Physical Production System) and Smart Factory implementation. The framework is being applied in one of the most advanced and complex industrial sectors like semiconductor, display, and automotive industry.

Utilizing a standard 130-nm CMOS process, a RF frontend is designed at 24 GHz for automotive collision avoidance radar application. Single IF direct conversion receiver (DCR) architecture is adopted to achieve high integration level and to alleviate the DCR problem. The proposed frontend is composed of a two-stage LNA and downconversion mixers. To save power consumption, and to enhance gain and linearity, stacked NMOS-PMOS $g_m$-boosting technique is employed in the design of LNA as the first stage. The switch transistors in the mixing stage are biased in subthreshold region to achieve low power consumption. The single balanced mixer is designed in PMOS transistors and is also realized based on the well-known folded architecture to increase voltage headroom. This frontend circuit features enhancement in gain, linearity, and power dissipation. The proposed circuit showed a maximum conversion gain of 19.6 dB and noise figure of 3 dB at the operation frequency. It also showed input and output return losses of less than -10 dB within bandwidth. Furthermore, the port-to-port isolation illustrated excellent characteristic between two ports. This frontend showed the third-order input intercept point (IIP3) of 3 dBm for the whole circuit with power dissipation of 6.5 mW from a 1.5 V supply.

좋은 품질의 제품을 얻기 위해서는 제품 자체에 대한 품질 적합성 검사 이전에 생산 및 시험 관련 설비에 대한 적절한 검증이 반드시 선행되어야 한다. 다양한 생산 및 시험 관련 설비 중에서도 ATE는 오늘날 자동차산업, 항공·우주산업, 반도체산업과 같은 민간분야 뿐만 아니라, 방위산업의 군수품 생산 및 성능시험에도 활발히 사용되고 있다. 본 논문은 다양한 방법을 활용하여 군용 FM 무전기 세트의 자동시험장비 인 ATS에 대해 체계적으로 설계 적합성 검증을 실시 한 결과를 다루고 있으며, 군수품 ATE에 대한 설계 적합성 검증 절차가 명문화 되어있지 않은 현 시점에 좋은 참고자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, the epi layer of npn SOI HBT with n+ buried layer has been studied through Sentaurus process and device simulator. The doping value of the deposited epi layer has been varied for the npn HBT to achieve improved $f_tBV_{CEO}$ product (397 GHzV). As the $BV_{CEO}$ value is higher for low value of epi layer doping, higher supply voltage can be used to increase the $f_t$ value of the HBT. At 1.8 V $V_{CE}$, the $f_tBV_{CEO}$ product of HBT is 465.5 GHzV. Further, the film thickness of the epi layer of the SOI HBT has been scaled for better performance (426.8 GHzV $f_tBV_{CEO}$ product at 1.2 V $V_{CE}$). The addition of this HBT module to fully depleted SOI CMOS technology would provide better solution for realizing wireless circuits and systems for 60 GHz short range communication and 77 GHz automotive radar applications. This SOI HBT together with SOI CMOS has potential for future high performance SOI BiCMOS technology.
