Abstract
  • A solution to the problems of computer scheduling of students based on course requests rather than section requests is discussed. The solution involves keeping all course data in core during the scheduling process to enable the scheduling program to run as fast as possible and using a scheduling algorithm which tries all possible combinations of sections for the requested courses until a conflict-free schedule is found, or until it is determined that the remaining conflicts are unresolvable. The algorithm schedules recitations and labs where required and maintains section balancing in terms of the percentage of scheduled stations for lecture, lab, and recitation sections within a course. Several methods of giving the student more choice in the sections he will be scheduled for are discussed. These include instructor preference and course request alternates. These features are not implemented in the algorithm currently being used.
