This paper is concerned with the application of an automated hybrid approach in addressing
the university timetabling problem. The approach described is based on the nature-inspired …

Smart Education is the influence of diverse technologies (Combinatorial Optimization,
Machine Learning, Big Data, data visualisation, Internet of Education Things, Learning …

Examination timetabling problems is the allocation of exams into feasible slots and rooms
subject to a set of constraints. Constraints can be categorized into hard and soft constraints …

In this study, we investigate the effectiveness of cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) for solving
the uncapacitated examination timetabling problem (UETTP). CSA is a popular …

A recently invented foraging behavior optimization algorithm which is the Artificial Bee
Colony (ABC) algorithm has been widely implemented in addressing various types of …

Examination timetabling is a challenging optimisation problem in operations research and
artificial intelligence. The main aim is to spread exams evenly throughout the overall time …

In this research, we introduce a hybrid integrated two-stage multi-neighbourhood tabu
search, ITMTS, with EMCQ method in solving an examination timetabling problem. Two …

In this research, we introduce a stratified random sampling technique that guides the
selection mechanism to select the events (exams) for the integrated two-stage multi …

Examination timetabling is a distinct, combinatorial optimization problem which tends to be
solved using stochastic search approaches such as evolutionary algorithms (EAs) and …

This paper reports on the design and implementation of an algorithm for the construction of
an examinations timetable. The Examinations Timetabling Problem is the problem of …
