This paper looks at Memetic Algorithm for solving timetabling problems. We present a new memetic algorithm which consists of global search algorithm and local search algorithm. In the proposed method, a genetic algorithm is chosen for global search algorithm while a simulated annealing algorithm is used for local search algorithm. In particular, we could get an optimal solution through the .NET with the real data of JiangXi Normal University. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can solve the university exam timetabling problem efficiently.
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.
