Multi-objective aspects of the examination timetabling competition track

چکیده
We investigate multi-objective aspects of the new examination timetabling model introduced as part of the 2007 International Timetabling Competition. We propose one way to group together the objectives to represent the separate interests of the students and administration, and produce an example of an associated (Pareto) trade-off curve.

Multi-Objective Aspects of the Examination Timetabling Competition Track (Abstract)
The examination timetabling problem has been extensively studied since Carter produced a collection of real instances [1] (for a recent survey see [2]). This year, a significant extension to the set of realistic instances has been provided by the examination timetabling track [3] of the 2007 International Timetabling Competition2. The exam track instances are much more realistic than the Carter...

متن کاملA new model for automated examination timetabling
Automated examination timetabling has been addressed by a wide variety of methodologies and techniques over the last ten years or so. Many of the methods in this broad range of approaches have been evaluated on a collection of benchmark instances provided at the University of Toronto in 1996. Whilst the existence of these datasets has provided an invaluable resource for research into examinatio...
