Title A name given to the resource Innovative constraints formulation in timetable planning for efficient resource allocation in academic institutions Description An account of the resource Many developing nations still rely on manual timetable scheduling in academic institutions, leading to inefficiencies. However, advancements in technology have introduced software solutions such as FET (free evolutionary timetabling) to automate the process. In a study, the authors successfully implemented FET to automate timetable creation at a university, reducing the time required from days to seconds. Scheduling in universities with elective courses poses challenges, includingavailable rooms, faculty availability, and guest lecturers. The authors propose a unique timetable generation process that considers post-pandemic social distancing measures. This process addresses various complex constraints faced by academic institutions and holds potential for reopening institutions in a cautious manner following the pandemic. 2023, IGI Global.
