Solving the Timetabling problem at FPT University

Abstract

University course timetabling problems are diversity combinatorial optimization class problems. Each specific case has different approaches and different solutions. In this project, we present a new approach for solving a real world university timetabling problem in FPT University. We focus on producing a service that can automatically generate a better quality timetable within acceptable time. Our web service also provides a simple Academic Portal that can handle students, teachers, courses, rooms, semesters, manual schedules, auto-checking conflict ... We conduct experiments on real dataset provided by the Academic Department which show the feasibility of the proposed approach.
