I am setting up an (international) mail group for people working on Timetabling
with GAs.  This is aimed at exam or course scheduling for academic institutions,
rather than manufacturing/job-shop scheduling.

Possible subjects for discussion include:

  o Data Requirements
  o Genetic Representations
  o GA Techniques
  o Standardisation (of data format, test problems, evaluation methods, etc.)
  o Timetable Constraints
  o Unification of Exam and Course Timetabling


If you would like to be added to the group, send me an email.
To send mail to the group, write to gattbl@cs.nott.ac.uk.
