Abstract
A license authentication device includes a memory that stores a license file including a license expiration date of an application that adjusts a parameter of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus in a semiconductor factory; and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor acquires log data when the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus executes a processing; and determines whether or not a time included in the log data has passed the license expiration date stored in the license information storage.
