Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 16:
17. The computer program product of claim 16, wherein the instructions are further configured to cause the computer system to:
determine, with a further front end of the process model, a further function associated with process physics and/or chemistry of a further operation within the patterning process flow; and
determine, with the same back end of the process model, a further predicted substrate geometry, the back end of the process model comprising the same volumetric representation of the target area on the substrate, and the further predicted substrate geometry determined by the back end by application of the further function associated with the process physics and/or chemistry of the further operation within the patterning process flow to manipulate the volumetric representation of the target area on the substrate.
