Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In lithography, we generate patterns on a wafer through a photomask,
where patterns generated have to be close to ideal patterns by
optimizing a photomask as well as an exposure source. One of the most
important tasks here is to speed-up exposure source optimization to
have overall optimized photomask and exposure source.
In this paper, we propose a speeding-up method for exposure source
optimization by clustering for lithography.
In our method, we cluster several source grid-points utilizing the lithography property and reduce the
number of parameters to be optimized simultaneously.
Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves 8X speed-up compared with
a conventional method.
