A semiconductor manufacturing including plurality of processors and a number of loader-unloaders exceeding thereof. Each object to be treated is transported to a processor in a single unit and treated, and then is transported to the loader-unloader. The manufacturing lot of the object to be treated by each processor is carried into each loader-unloader while the remaining loader-unloader is left empty, thereafter each of the processors starts treatment, and while the object to be treated is being treated by each processor, based on manufacturing information of the object to be treated for each processor, the processor that finishes treatment relatively early is predicted, and before finishing the treatment by each processor, the manufacturing lot to be treated by the processor that has been predicted to finish treatment relatively early is carried into the loader-unloader that is currently empty.
A semiconductor manufacturing device comprising a plurality of processors and a number of loader-unloaders exceeding thereof, for an object to be treated that is transported according to a production plan determined as desired, where a processor for treating carries an object to be treated, which is determined for each manufacturing lot, into the loader-unloader in a unit of the manufacturing lot, each object to be treated is transported to the processor in a single unit and treated, and then is transported to the loader-unloader,
A semiconductor manufacturing method that uses a semiconductor manufacturing device provided with a plurality of processors and a number of loader-unloaders exceeding thereof, for an object to be treated that is transported according to a production plan determined as desired, carries, by the processor for treating, the object to be treated which is determined for each manufacturing lot into the loader-unloader in a unit of the manufacturing lot, thereafter transports, to the processor, and treats each object to be treated in a single unit, and then transports each object to be treated to the loader-unloader, the method comprising:
