interlock mechanism and with / without vacuum and UPS sensor control. The

Robot and Prealigner communicates through RS232

(Serial Communication) ports. Sensor control (Pneumatic Arm, Size

Sensor, Vacuum, UPS, Light tower, door/panel interlock) controlled through

device drivers (Adventech). Camera is connected on the network and is

controlled and communicates using Socket

Programming (TCP/IP). The whole applications is based on multithreading to

have parallel execution of controls and use Critical

Sections, Mutex and Semaphore to

avoid collision or overlapping. The application interacts with the user

through MDI MFC GUI, ActiveX Controls and ActiveX Composite Control.

These Controls includes Robot, Prealigner, Camera, Stations Types (Cassette,

Tilters etc.) and Sensor controls and are placed on individual control bar

and then combines on main user interface. This application also uses MS Access for storage of permanent,

configurable and dynamic data. A customized report can be generated on user

request related to wafers in Cassette for label purpose or detail report.

These types of reports were created by using Crystal Report 8.5. This wafer-handling tool is

used for wafers to move from one cassette to another, aligning, ID reading,

sorting and other user specific requirements. This whole application runs in

Auto Mode or in Manual Mode (to work or reset or test individual hardware

device) and SECS/GEM mode. Also run able in Simulation mode

without hardware, to make possible for fast addition, modification, and

robust testing and demo purposes. Main customers for these types of

semiconductor equipment include Applied Materials, HP, Fujitsu, Fairchild

etc.

The Graphical User Interface (GUI) and routine for sending encrypted data is written by

using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0. The code is written with the help of MFC, Win32 API, DLLs and ActiveX

Control. A Phone Book and other related material are maintained in a

database by using Microsoft

Access 97. All updating, modification and deletion in database are done

through GUI created in VC++ 6 by using DAO, ODBC and RDO. All components of the project are created

Description:

The goal of the

project is to develop a fully functional ‘Domain Security System’ for System Administrator

working on Microsoft Windows

NT.

The system employs a GUI,

which helps the administrator to monitor all the

computers connected on the Network, also he can view the logged on users,

what resources they are using and what application they are running. This

network monitoring system can run locally as well as remotely using Windows sockets on TCP/IP. The

monitoring system also includes multiple intelligent agents for monitoring,

which includes ‘Security

log’,

‘File access’, ‘Printer access’ and ‘Low level disk Access’. The whole

system based on “Rule-Based” inferencing

techniques of Artificial Intelligence. Also when any of the monitoring events

occur, it can be adjusted to send a message to a particular computer just

like a Messenger Service of Windows NT. This system was created at User Level

of Windows NT and developed

by using Allegro

Common Lisp Ver. 3.0.2 as GUI front end, which was used to implement Rule Base

system of AI Technique, and in the background a DLL was used. This DLL was created by using Microsoft Visual C++ 4.1 and executes

different Networking functions called by the front end.
