A Modified Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm for Post-enrolment Course Timetabling

摘要：

　　The post-enrolment course timetabling is concern with as signing a set of courses to a set of rooms and timeslots according to the set of constraints.The problem has been tackled using metaheuristic techniques.Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm has been successfully used for tackling uncapaciated examination and curriculum based course timetabling problems.In this paper ABC is modified for post-enrolment course timetabling problem.The modification is embedded in the on looker bee where the multiswap algorithm is used to replace its process.The dataset established by Socha including 5 small, 5 medium and one large dataset are used in the evaluation of the proposed technique.Inter estingly, the results obtained is highly competitive when compared with those previously published techniques.
