Analysing similarity in exam timetabling (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Burke, E., Eckersley, A., McCollum, B., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2004). Analysing similarity in exam timetabling.

In this paper we carry out an investigation of some of the major features of exam timetabling problems with a view to developing a similarity measure. This similarity measure will be used within a case-based reasoning (CBR) system to match a new prob... Read More about Analysing similarity in exam timetabling.

Similarity Measures for Exam Timetabling Problems (2003)
Conference Proceeding
Burke, E., Eckersley, A., McCollum, B., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2003). Similarity Measures for Exam Timetabling Problems.

A large number of heuristic algorithms have been developed over the years which have been aimed at solving examination timetabling problems. However, many of these algorithms have been developed specifically to solve one particular problem instance o... Read More about Similarity Measures for Exam Timetabling Problems.

Knowledge discovery in hyper-heuristic using case-based reasoning on course timetabling (2002)
Conference Proceeding
Burke, E., MacCarthy, B. L., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2002). Knowledge discovery in hyper-heuristic using case-based reasoning on course timetabling.

This paper presents a new hyper-heuristic method using Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) for solving course timetabling problems. The term Hyper-heuristics has recently been employed to refer to 'heuristics that choose heuristics' rather than heuristics tha...

Case-based reasoning in course timetabling: an attribute graph approach (2001)
Conference Proceeding
Burke, E., MacCarthy, B. L., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2001). Case-based reasoning in course timetabling: an attribute graph approach.

An earlier Case-based Reasoning (CBR) approach developed by the authors for educational course timetabling problems employed structured cases to represent the complex relationships between courses. Previous solved cases represented by attribute g... Read More about Case-based reasoning in course timetabling: an attribute graph approach.
