A GA evolving instructions for a timetable builder. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Blum, C., Correia, S., Dorigo, M., Paechter, B., Rossi-Doria, O., & Snoek, M. (2002, August). A GA evolving instructions for a timetable builder. Presented at PATAT 2002

In this work we present a Genetic Algorithm for tackling timetabling problems. Our approach uses an indirect solution representation, which denotes a number of instructions for a timetable builder on how to sequentially build a solution. These instru...
