This paper presents the optimal scheduling method in hybrid production systems. To overcome a complex scheduling problem, we introduce a model that divides scheduling into two levels. At the upper level of the model, we focus on batch job scheduling, precisely when and where jobs are done in hybrid production system, while at the lower level, the elements of the batch are scheduled and built in a hybrid production system.
