If there are any clear clusters or patterns here, engineers may analyze subsets of the data group by specific pathways. Otherwise, this information is retained for future reference.
Next, process behavior and performance will be investigated at the batch, lot and potentially wafer levels. Typically, data will first be visualized with box plots to get a sense of variability within and across lots. Sometimes, histograms will be plotted alongside box plots.
