Abstract

Student class schedules often involve significant scheduling conflicts and can be challenging to resolve. Three scheduling problems common to students, advisors, and deans at universities include building a schedule, changing schedules for multiple students due to a course cancelation, and finding seats for students on waitlists for multiple courses. This paper presents binary integer programs to solve each, building in complexity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
