Course Planning at Lufthansa Technical Training: Constructing More Profitable Schedules

Lufthansa Technical Training GmbH (LTT) runs training courses for Lufthansa Technik AG and for several other international airlines. It offers about 670 types of courses of which several hundred take place each year. The course-scheduling problem LTT faces is to develop a schedule for the year that maximizes its profit while meeting complex precedence, temporal , and resource-related constraint...

Near-Optimal Course Scheduling at the Technion

The focus of this article is the automation of course, classroom, and exam scheduling for the faculty of Industrial Engineering (IE) at the Technion in Haifa, Israel. The system, called the Technion Industrial Engineering Scheduler (TieSched), has been operational since 2012. It is based on a distributed collection of constraints and multiple engines running in parallel, including SAT, pseudo-B...

Course Scheduling As A Constraint Satisfaction Problem

This paper describes a scheduling system to fullll the timetabling needs of the Computer Science program at Florida Institute of Technology. The system handles both general constraints of timetabling problems and constraints speciic to our problem. It has the exibility of allowing for either manual or automatic assignments. The scheduling process is split into two phases; each phase is modeled ...

Quay Cranes and Yard Trucks Scheduling Problem at Container Terminals

A bi-objective mathematical model is developed to simultaneously consider the quay crane and yard truck scheduling problems at container terminals. Main real-world assumptions, such as quay cranes with non-crossing constraints, quay cranes’ safety margins and precedence constraints are considered in this model. This integrated approach leads to better efficiency and productivity at container te...
