International ClassH01L 21/00AbstractIn the case of the method, an analysis is performed by using values of at least one process parameter of the manufacturing process of the physical object and, as a result of the analysis, when they satisfy a prescribed selection criterion, physical objects are marked in such a way that the associated physical objects can be taken as a random sample for the monitoring of the manufacturing process.Other References
