A process gas supply cycle pattern that will adversely affect the result of processing is changed beforehand. Based on information supplied from a setting input section, a pattern computation section obtains the result of computation of a process gas supply cycle pattern that includes a rotation cycle of a substrate rotation mechanism, a supply cycle of a process gas, a supply time of the process gas, and a supply count of the process gas. Based on information supplied from the setting input section, a simulator simulates the shape of a supply region of the process gas to be supplied onto a substrate. A comparison section compares the result of computation of the process gas supply cycle pattern determined by the pattern computation section against the result of referencing of a process gas supply cycle pattern that adversely affects the result of processing and is obtained from a storage section. |
