Real-time rule engine for adaptive testing of integrated circuits

A system, method, service and media for managing both supplier-owned and non-owned manufacturing asset types utilizing a supplier model of a product which goes across the manufacturing asset types. The invention maps the model to instances of the asset types and uses a network to control and monitor the assets. The monitoring and control occur according to the model, rules and services and does not require the vendors of non-owned manufacturing asset types to change their manufacturing execution systems.
