A Framework for School Timetabling Problem. In proceedings of the 3rd Multidisciplinary International Conference on Scheduling : Theory and Applications (MISTA 2007), 28 -31 August 2007, Paris, France, pages 386-393, 2007.
Paper
Abstract: This paper introduces a framework for a highly constrained school timetabling problem, which was modeled from the requirements of various Finnish school levels. We present a successful algorithm to solve real-world problems as well as artificial test problems. Moreover, we find the best configuration for this algorithm using brute force and statistical analyses. Finally, we propose a set of benchmark problems that we hope the researchers of the timetabling problems would adopt.
