Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method for generating a droplet recipe used in imprint lithography includes acquiring feature data for a pattern shape that has been formed on a template. The feature data is acquired by measuring the pattern shape of a pattern that has been formed on the template. A dispensing amount for resin to be dispensed on a substrate for filling of the pattern of the template during imprinting of the pattern of the template on the substrate is calculated, based on the acquired feature data. A dispensing amount for resin corresponding to a target thickness of a residual film formed on the substrate during the imprinting of the pattern of the template on the substrate is also calculated. A droplet recipe for dispensing of resin during imprinting of the pattern of the template is then generated based on the calculated dispensing amounts.

Abstract: A control device and a control method can quickly estimate a self-location even when the self-location is unknown. In a case of storing information supplied in a time series detected by LIDAR or a wheel encoder and estimating a self-location by using the stored time-series information, when a position change happens unpredictably in advance such as a kidnap state is detected, the stored time-series information is reset, and then the self-location is estimated again. Example host platforms include a multi-legged robot, a flying object, and an in-vehicle system that autonomously moves in accordance with a mounted computing machine.
