AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The data collected are usually proprietary and often sensitive.
Small IC manufacturing sites may not be readily accessible to the OEMs for service.
It is usually not economical to maintain an on-site OEM representative for service, and such small IC manufacturing sites must often transport their service personnel to the site when service is needed.
This is also costly, and can delay manufacturing, which reduces production and profits.
