A two-stage stochastic programming approach for a multi-objective course timetabling problem with courses cancelation risk

Computers & industrial engineering, 2019
We study a university course timetabling problem, where the registration is implemented in two steps: pre-registration and drop/add phases. Since the ultimate timetable is finalized based on the students’ decisions made on the drop/add phase, there may ...

Cost functions and multi-objective timetabling of mixed train services

Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 2018
This paper investigates a set of cost functions for assessing and timetabling mainline train services. The present study incorporates considerations from both operators’ and passengers’ perspectives including service running times, punctuality, waiting ...

Integrated train timetabling and locomotive assignment

Transportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2018
Train timetabling and locomotive assignment are often performed separately in a sequential manner. One obvious disadvantage of such hierarchical planning process is that it often results in poor coordination between the train schedule and the locomotive ...

Examination timetabling by computer

Computers & Operations Research, 1984
Abstract This paper describes an automatic procedure for constructing examination timetables in universities. The program produces schedules in which there are no conflicts and such that examinations are spaced out as evenly as possible for most students.

A Practical Timetabling Algorithm for College Lecture-Timetable Scheduling

2004
A college timetable is a temporal arrangement of a set of classes and classrooms which all given constraints are satisfied. Time-tabling has long been known to belong to the class of problems called NP-hard. This paper introduces a practical timetabling algorithm capable of taking care of both strong and weak constraints effectively, used in an ...

Emergent Timetabling Organization

2005
This paper presents the usage of cooperative self-organization to design adaptive artificial systems. Cooperation can be viewed as a local criterion for agents to self-organize and then to perform a more adequate collective function. This paper shows an application of cooperative behaviors to a dynamic distributed timetabling problem, ETTO, in which ...
