Abstract

The algorithms for timetabling have been widely studied but there are no perfect solutions for it yet. Through investigating and comparing the existing algorithms, it has been found that these algorithms can be classified into two categories designated as constructed algorithms and modern algorithms, which show the individual advantages and shortages. In this improved algorithm, the genetic algorithm and some useful rules have been introduced into the retrospective algorithm. The practical application proves that the improved retrospective algorithm is especially suitable as a timetabling system.
