In a semiconductor manufacturing system, operations of a plurality of processing apparatuses are controlled so as to efficiently manufacture semiconductor devices. The semiconductor manufacturing system having at least one processing apparatus for applying a process to semiconductor substrates. A memory part (5) stores priority-level data which indicates a priority level of the process to be applied to each of the semiconductor substrates on an individual semiconductor substrate basis. A control part (3, 7) controls the processing apparatus to apply the process to a newly supplied one of the semiconductor substrates by determining an order of processing the newly supplied one of the semiconductor substrates being supplied to the processing apparatus based on a comparison of new priority-level data with the priority-level data stored in the memory part with respect to the semiconductor substrates of which process has been scheduled, the new priority-level data being supplied in response to the newly supplied one of the semiconductor substrates being supplied to the processing apparatus. |
