چکیده

Automated timetables are used to schedule courses, lectures and rooms in universities by considering some constraints. Inconvenient and ineffective timetables often waste time and money. Therefore, it is important to investigate the requirements and potential needs of users. Thus, eliciting user requirements of University Timetable Management System (TMS) and their implication becomes an important process for the implementation of TMS. On this note, this paper seeks to propose a model of requirements for the University Timetable Management System (TMS). Using quantitative and qualitative methods, this model provides developers a more effective and efficient platform for developing a high quality TMS.
