SEMI E53 - Event Reporting

Access to process data in equipment is crucial for effective process monitoring and control in a semiconductor manufacturing facility. This standard addresses the communication needs of semiconductor equipment and other factory objects, such as cell controllers or recipe servers, with respect to the timely collection and reporting of such data. The purpose of this standard is to provide a general-purpose set of event reporting services that may be offered by equipment suppliers. This document may be referenced, in whole or in part, by other standards addressing higher-level application domains. The communications services defined here will enable the standards-based interoperability of independent systems. They shall allow application software to be developed which can assume the existence of these services and allow software products to be developed which offer them.
