Abstract:
A manufacturing process prioritization system. In one embodiment, the system includes at least one computing device adapted to prioritize a very large scale integration (VLSI) process, by performing actions including: querying a database for task-based data associated with a set of manufacturing tasks; applying at least one rule to the task-based data to prioritize a first one of the set of manufacturing tasks over a second one of the set of manufacturing tasks; and providing a set of processing instructions for processing a manufactured product according to the prioritization.
