| Summary: | Abstract: "Researchers are turning more and more to evolutionary algorithms (EAs) as a flexible and effective technique for addressing timetabling problems in their institutions. We present a class of specialised mutation operators for use in conjunction with the commonly employed penalty-function based EA approach to timetabling which shows significant improvement in performance over a range of real and realistic problems. We also discuss the use of delta evaluation, an obvious and recommended technique which speeds up the implementation of the approach, and leads to a more pertinent measure of speed than the commonly used 'number of evaluations'. A suite of realistically difficult benchmark timetabling problems is described and made available for use in comparative research." |
