“…Although there are many studies in the literature about solving the problem of exam scheduling by genetic algorithm [15][16][17], there are not many studies for central examinations. In addition, there are different studies [18][19][20][21][22][23][24] that seek solutions to the problem of exam scheduling with different techniques such as fuzzy logic and data mining. However, these studies do not cover the central examinations again.…”

It is the efficient use of resources expected from an exam scheduling application. There are various criteria for efficient use of resources and for all tests to be carried out at minimum cost in the shortest possible time. It is aimed that educational institutions with such criteria successfully carry out central examination organizations. In the study, a two-stage genetic algorithm was developed. In the first stage, the assignment of courses to sessions was carried out. In the second stage, the students who participated in the test session were assigned to examination rooms. Purposes of the study are increasing the number of joint students participating in sessions, using the minimum number of buildings in the same session, and reducing the number of supervisors using the minimum number of classrooms possible. In this study, a general purpose exam scheduling solution for educational institutions was presented. The developed system can be used in different central examinations to create originality. Given the results of the sample application, it is seen that the proposed genetic algorithm gives successful results. MERKEZİ SINAVLARDA YAŞANAN SINAV ÇİZELGELEME PROBLEMLERİNİN GENETİK ALGORİTMALAR İLE ÇÖZÜLMESİÖz Bir sınav çizelgeleme uygulamasından beklenen kaynakların verimli kullanımıdır. Kaynakları verimli kullanabilmek ve en kısa zamanda en az maliyetle bütün sınavların gerçekleştirilmesi için çeşitli kıstaslar vardır. Yapılan çalışma ile bu tür kıstaslara sahip eğitim kurumlarının, merkezi sınav organizasyonlarını başarıyla gerçekleştirmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada, iki aşamalı genetik algoritma geliştirilmiştir. Birinci aşamada derslerin oturumlara atanması işlemi, ikinci aşamada ise ilgili oturumda sınava katılacak öğrencilerin sınav salonlarına atanması işlemi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Oturumlara katılan ortak öğrenci sayısının arttırılması, aynı oturumda asgari bina kullanımı, mümkün olan en az sayıda sınıf-sıra kullanılarak gözetmen sayısının azaltılması yapılan çalışmanın amaçlarını oluşturmaktadır. Yapılan bu çalışmada eğitim kurumlarına yönelik genel amaçlı sınav çizelgeleme çözümü sunulmuştur. Geliştirilen sistem farklı merkezi sınavlar içinde kullanılabilmesiyle özgünlük oluşturmaktadır. Örnek uygulama sonuçlarına bakıldığında önerilen genetik algoritmanın başarılı sonuçlar verdiği görülmektedir.

University examination timetabling problem is a type of scheduling problem. Schedule the course with minimum conflict means that none of the students should have more than one exam on the same day. In this regard, we developed an Examination Scheduling System (ESS) using the available resources (Halls, Invigilators, and instructors)with no conflict and thus achievingapproval of the system among students and faculties. ESS application was made using ASP.net, C#, crystal report and SQL Server for building the relational database of ESS application.
