A method of controlling a continuous casting system for producing slabs from a material, the continuous casting system having a number of molds for forming corresponding strands, the method including receiving a plurality of casting orders, determining for each of the casting orders a set of slabs to be cast, sorting the slabs to be cast of the sets of the casting orders to obtain a sorted base sequence, uniformly partitioning the sorted base sequence into a number of subsequences, adjusting slab widths of the slabs to be cast of the subsequence, wherein, due to the adjustment, the width changes between two slabs to be cast immediately one after the other in the subsequence do not exceed a step value, wherein adjusted subsequences are obtained from the adjusted slab widths, transmitting control data to the continuous casting system for producing the slabs to be cast determined in the adjusted subsequences.
