Abstract:
A method comprises transporting semiconductor devices between a global system and a local system, wherein an input terminal of the local system is connected to the global system, and wherein the global system comprises a plurality of stockers and a global transportation system connected to the stockers and the local system comprises a first service area, an internal buffer, a second service area and a plurality of lithography apparatuses and transporting a semiconductor device from the first service area to a lithography apparatus in the second service area.

Claim (Index 1):
A method comprising:\n transporting wafers and reticles between a global system and a local system, wherein an input terminal of the local system is connected to the global system, and wherein the local system comprises:\n a first buffer at a boundary between the global system and the local system; \n a second buffer at a default position of the local system, wherein the default position is a boundary between a first service area and a second service area; and \n a third buffer at an end of the local system, wherein the first service area is from the first buffer to the second buffer and the second service area is from the second buffer to the third buffer; \n transporting a reticle from a first scanner in the first service area to a second scanner in the second service area; adjusting the boundary between the first service area and the second service area by moving the second buffer, wherein the second scanner is in the first service area as a result of performing the step of adjusting the boundary between the first service area and the second service area; and transporting the reticle to the second scanner.
