Timetabling problem is complex combinatorial resources allocation problems. There are two hard and soft constraints to be satisfied. The timetable is feasible if all hard constraints are satisfied. Besides, satisfying more of the soft constraints produces a high-quality timetable. Crow Search Algorithm (CSA) as an intelligence technique presents for solving timetable problem. CSA like all meta-heuristic optimization techniques is a nature-inspire of intelligent behavior of crows. The proposed CSA tested using the well-known benchmark of hard timetabling datasets (hdtt). Taguchi’s method used to tune the best parameter combinations for the factors and levels. The tuned parameters of CSA are applied on datasets in separate experiment. The results show that the proposed CSA is superior to generate solutions in reasonable CPU time when compared with other literature techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
