ABSTRACT:
A fabricating method for a system including a plurality of processing apparatuses connected to each other by an inter-apparatus transporter. The semiconductor waters are processed in the processing apparatuses and are transported to specified processing apparatuses in different time interval that are set to N times a unit time interval. Since the fabricating system includes processing apparatuses and an inter-apparatus transporter that are periodically controlled at time intervals related to a unit time, intervals related to a unit time, the scheduling of a plurality of works can be made efficiently to enhance the level of optimization, thus improving the productivity.
