Combinations of evolutionary based approaches with local search have provided very good results for a variety of scheduling problems. This paper describes the development of such a...
This paper presents a hybrid evolutionary algorithm to tackle university course timetabling problems. The proposed approach is an extension of a non-linear great deluge algorithm i...
Abstract. This paper describes the application of a hybrid genetic algorithm to a real-world instance of the university course timetabling problem. We address the timetabling of la...
This paper addresses the problem of finding a feasible solution for the University Course Timetabling Problem (UCTP), i.e. a solution that satisfies all the so-called hard const...

The scheduling of exams in institutions of higher education is known to be a highly constrained problem. The advent of modularity in many institutions in the UK has resulted in a s...
