Abstract:
A method involving determining a contribution that one or more process apparatuses make to a characteristic of a substrate after the substrate has been processed according to a patterning process by the one or more process apparatuses by removing from values of the characteristic of the substrate a contribution of a lithography apparatus to the characteristic and a contribution of one or more pre-lithography process apparatuses to the characteristic.

Claim (Index 14):
A method, comprising:\n estimating, by a hardware computer system, a characteristic that will be imparted to a substrate to be processed by a pattering process by combining a contribution specific to the substrate of a first group of one or more process variables related to one or more process apparatuses used in the patterning process and a contribution non-specific to the substrate of a second group of one or more process variables related to the one or more process apparatuses, at least one process variable from the first group and/or the second group being related to a process apparatus upstream from a lithographic apparatus.
