Timetabling in constraint logic programming

open access: yes, 1996
In this paper we describe the timetabling problem and its solvability in a Constraint Logic Programming Language. A solution to the problem has been developed and implemented in ECLiPSe, since it deals with finite domains, it has well-defined ...

Analysing Similarity in Exam Timetabling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
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 case-based reasoning (CBR) system to match a new problem ...
