Chaddick School Chair, won the Best Student Abstract Award for \u0022Neural Networks for Advanced Process Control\u0022  at the Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference, which was held in San Francisco in July 2010. This honor is shared with a third coauthor, Mark Kiehlbauch, of Micron Technology in Boise, Idaho. This award is sponsored by the International SEMATECH Manufacturing Initiative. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIn the research described in this abstract, sequential neural network models were developed to characterize critical steps in fabricating integrated circuits. The data used were collected from an industrial process, a distinguishing feature of this research. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe models performed well, with testing errors below 5 percent, demonstrating the flexibility of the sequential neural network modeling process. Additionally, the models were used in a sensitivity analysis to study the output response to the various inputs. Future work will include using the models as part of a model-based supervisory control system.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"ECE Ph.D. student Zubin Mevawalla and his advisor Gary May won the Best Student Abstract Award at the Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference.","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Zubin Mevawalla and Gary May receive Best Student Abstract Award."}],"uid":"27241","created_gmt":"2011-01-17 01:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:08:15","author":"Jackie Nemeth","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2011-01-17T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2011-01-17T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"64561":{"id":"64561","type":"image","title":"Gary May and Zubin Mevawalla","body":null,"created":"1449176753","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:05:53","changed":"1475894567","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:42:47","alt":"Gary May and Zubin Mevawalla","file":{"fid":"192021","name":"tuy00181.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/tuy00181_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/tuy00181_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":31867,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/tuy00181_0.jpg?itok=D_wFp3fT"}}},"media_ids":["64561"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/","title":"Georgia Tech"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.ece.gatech.edu\/","title":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.semi.org\/en\/EventsTradeshows\/CTR_030626","title":"Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference"}],"groups":[{"id":"1255","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"}],"categories":[{"id":"129","name":"Institute and Campus"},{"id":"134","name":"Student and Faculty"},{"id":"145","name":"Engineering"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"},{"id":"150","name":"Physics and Physical Sciences"}],"keywords":[{"id":"12079","name":"Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference"},{"id":"2484","name":"Gary May"},{"id":"109","name":"Georgia Tech"},{"id":"166855","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"},{"id":"12078","name":"Zubin Mevawalla"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003EJackie Nemeth\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ESchool of Electrical and Computer Engineering\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EContact Jackie Nemeth\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404-894-2906\u003C\/strong\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
