Abstract:
A production planning system and a system for energy supply planning are configured to determine a production schedule and an energy supply schedule, respectively, by interactively and mutually exchanging scheduling information with the respective other system and by taking the received scheduling information into account during the planning of the respective schedule. The interacting is performed in a kind of handshaking during planning of the respective schedules, where each of the two systems waits with the next iteration step until the other system delivers its updated schedule.
