Fairness in Academic Course Timetabling
We consider the problem of creating fair course timetables in the setting of a university. Our motivation is to improve the overall satisfaction of individuals concerned (students, teachers, etc.) by providing a fair timetable to them. The central idea is that undesirable arrangements in the course timetable, i. e., violations of soft constraints, should be distributed in a fair way among the i...
متن کاملInteractive Course Timetabling
Timetabling problems are often solved based upon what is assumed to be complete information about the problem. However, users may later desire modifications to the generated timetable to adapt to changing requirements or increase their personal satisfaction with the solution [1,5,3]. Methods that allow corrections to an existing timetable while leaving most of the solution intact are necessary....
متن کاملMetaheuristics for university course timetabling
The work presented in this thesis concerns the problem of timetabling at universities – particularly course-timetabling, and examines the various ways in which metaheuristic techniques might be applied to these sorts of problems. Using a popular benchmark version of a university course timetabling problem, we examine the implications of using a “twostaged” algorithmic approach, whereby in stage...
متن کاملMinimal Perturbation Problem in Course Timetabling
Many real-life problems are dynamic, with changes in the problem definition occurring after a solution to the initial formulation has been reached. The minimal perturbation problem incorporates these changes, along with the initial solution, as a new problem whose solution must be as close as possible to the solution of an initial problem. A new iterative forward search algorithm is proposed to...
متن کاملFairness in examination timetabling: Student preferences and extended formulations
Although they have been investigated for more than two decades, university examination timetabling problems are still considered challenging and interesting problems. In our study, we are investigating student preferences for the control of the time gaps between examinations; specifically, what students consider to be best for them and also fair between students. To support this, we conducted a...
