An object-oriented framework for modular chemical process simulation with semiconductor processing applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper discusses the development of a set of object-oriented modular simulation tools for solving lumped and spatially distributed models generated from chemical process design and simulation problems. Developed in the context of simulating semiconductor manufacture equipment, this framework reduces the software development cycle time associated with designing process systems and it improves the overall efficiency of the simulator development process. Modularized simulator components can be solved and analyzed individually, as well as formed into modular systems that can be solved using sequential or simultaneous approaches. A tungsten chemical vapor deposition simulation application is presented to illustrate the capability of the proposed tools in facilitating an evolutionary simulation approach. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

Modularized components can be easily integrated/adapted to form a new user-define...
متن کاملDeclarative Semantics in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey
One of the modern paradigms to develop an application is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles in applications. In an application, we must distinguish between procedural semantics and declarative semantics for their implementation in a specific programming language. For the procedural semantics, we can write a ...
