Intelligent Examination Timetabling System Using Hybrid Intelligent Water Drops Algorithm

This paper proposes Hybrid Intelligent Water Drops (HIWD) algorithm to solve Tamhidi programs uncapacitated examination timetabling problem in Universiti Sains Islamic Malaysia (USIM). Intelligent Water Drops algorithm (IWD) is a population-based algorithm where each drop represents a solution and the sharing between the drops during the search lead to better drops. The results of this study pr...

Distributed Examination Timetabling

Real-life examination timetabling

An examination timetabling problem at a large American university is presented. Though there are some important differences, the solution approach is based on the ITC 2007 winning solver which is integrated in the open source university timetabling system UniTime. In this work, nine real world benchmark data sets are made publicly available and the results on four of them are presented in this ...

Analysing Similarity in Examination Timetabling

In this paper we carry out an investigation of some of the major features of exam timetabling problems with a view to developing a similarity measure. This similarity measure will be used within a casebased reasoning (CBR) system to match a new problem with one from a case-base of previously solved problems. The case base will also store the heuristic or meta-heuristic technique(s) applied most...

Examination Timetabling: A New Formulation

Since the mid 1990’s, with the implementation of increasingly flexible modular course structures in many UK Universities, the central production and coordination of the associated examination timetable has become increasingly difficult with more examination offerings having to be timetabled in such a manner as to provide students with a maximum distribution of their exams throughout the examina...
