Solving a Practical Examination Timetabling Problem: A Case Study
This paper presents a Greedy-Least Saturation Degree (G-LSD) heuristic (which is an adaptation of the least saturation degree heuristic) to solve a real-world examination timetabli...

A Genetic Programming Approach to the Generation of Hyper-Heuristics for the Uncapacitated Examination Timetabling Problem
Research in the field of examination timetabling has developed in two directions. The first looks at applying various methodologies to induce examination timetables. The second tak...

A Reinforcement Learning - Great-Deluge Hyper-Heuristic for Examination Timetabling
Hyper-heuristics are identified as the methodologies that search the space generated by a finite set of low level heuristics for solving difficult problems. One of the iterative h...

Case-based selection of initialisation heuristics for metaheuristic examination timetabling
Examination timetabling problems are often solved by a two-phase procedure combining a sequential construction heuristic with a metaheuristic improvement search. There can be many...

A Multicriteria Approach to Examination Timetabling
The main aim of this paper is to consider university examination timetabling problems as multicriteria decision problems. A new multicriteria approach to solving such problems is p...
