A hybrid metaheuristic approach to the university course timetabling problem
This paper describes the development of a novel metaheuristic that combines an electromagnetic-like mechanism (EM) and the great deluge algorithm (GD) for the University course timetabling problem. This well-known timetabling problem assigns lectures to specific numbers of timeslots and rooms maximizing the overall quality of the timetable while taking various constraints into account. EM is a ...
متن کاملGenetic Algorithms for University Course Timetabling Problems
The university course timetabling problem is a difficult optimisation problem due to its highly-constrained nature. Finding an optimal, or even a high quality, timetable is a challenging task, especially when resources (e.g., rooms and time slots) are limited. In the literature, many approaches have been studied to solve this problem. In this thesis, we investigate genetic algorithms to solve t...
متن کاملModeling and Solution of a Complex University Course Timetabling Problem
The modeling and solution approaches being used to automate construction of course timetables at a large university are discussed. A course structure model is presented that allows this complex real-world problem to be described using a classical formulation. The problem is then tackled utilizing a course timetabling solver model that transforms it into a constraint satisfaction and optimizatio...

This is to certify that we have read this thesis and that we find it fully adequate in scope, quality and content, as a thesis for the degree of Master of Science. continously asking me " how is the thesis going? " , because she encouraged me to persevere without knowing it. Also I would like to thank to my best friend, my colleague, my dear husband Tarkan Aydın for his understanding, patience,...
متن کاملA Hybrid Approach for University Course Timetabling
The university course timetabling problem deals with the assignment of lectures to specific timeslots and rooms. The goal is to satisfy the soft constraints to the largest degree possible while constructing a feasible schedule. In this paper, we present a hybrid approach consisting of three phases. During phase 1, initial solutions are generated using a constructive heuristic. An improvement ap...
