A computer implemented method for LSI mask manufacturing stores performance information
of a lithography unit, connected to a network, in a lithography unit database.
The method receives a lithography data and a lithography reservation condition
from a user terminal connected to the network. The method stores the lithography
data in a lithography data database. The method searches for a lithography unit
matching to the lithography reservation condition, generating a list of lithography
units, and sending the list to the user terminal. In addition, the method receives
information of a lithography unit specified by the user terminal and sending a
lithography request to the lithography unit specified by the user terminal.
