Abstract

See full text

To provide a technique capable of making a schedule with good time efficiency in schedule making for the transport of substrates. A schedule making device makes a judgment as to whether a batch carrying-out procedure can complete the transport earlier than a sequential carrying-out procedure or not, and selectively employs these procedures in accordance with a result of the judgment. The sequential carrying-out procedure is a procedure in which substrates are transported to a predetermined transport destination in chronological order of the times at which the transport process can start, and the batch carrying-out procedure is a procedure in which a substrate the transport process of which can start is not transported until a time at which the transport process of a succeeding substrate can start, and the substrates are transported together to a transport destination at the time when the transport process of the succeeding substrate can start.
