| 1. A system for controlling jobs of a production device having resources and jobs, comprising a data processing device, wherein
the data processing device comprises:
a simulated image of the production device, the simulated image including simulated resources of the production device resources
and simulated jobs of the production device jobs;
a planning facility for determining a possible optimum sequence of the jobs of the production device based on an initial situation
with regard to simulated resources and simulated jobs with the aid of an optimization algorithm; and
a procedure control unit for coordinating the control of the production device with the aid of a solution algorithm, which
is provided for ascertaining a target state by simulating the necessary operations of the production device.
