Scheduling Algorithm for University Timetabling Problem
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 6
Abstract
Abstract: Scheduling for timetabling is one of the challenges faced by most Universities in developing countries. In this research work, consideration is made in developing of a scheduling algorithm capable of providing solution to a timetabling problem in Universities. Hence, a practical approach is created by incorporating Local Search Procedures into Constraints Programming for generating lecture timetable which was tested on some universities timetabling problems and was found to provide a better solution than most existing methods.
