Field: Semiconductors (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 8:
9. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program executed by a substrate processing apparatus comprising:
a substrate holder configured to hold a plurality of substrates including product substrates, which are homogeneous, and dummy substrates;
a transfer mechanism configured to transfer the product substrates and the dummy substrates to the substrate holder; and
a controller configured to be capable of controlling the transfer mechanism to transfer the product substrates and the dummy substrates to the substrate holder;
wherein the program causes the controller to be capable of performing:
acquiring a number of substrates mountable on the substrate holder and a number of the product substrates to be mounted on the substrate holder;
dividing the product substrates into a plurality of product substrate groups based on the acquired number of the product substrates;
calculating a number of the dummy substrates based on the acquired number of the product substrates and the acquired number of the substrates mountable on the substrate holder;
dividing the dummy substrates into a plurality of dummy substrate groups based on the number of the dummy substrates and a number of the product substrate groups;
creating substrate arrangement data for arranging the dummy substrate groups between the product substrate groups; and
causing the transfer mechanism to transfer the product substrates and the dummy substrates to the substrate holder according to the created substrate arrangement data.
