摘要
Simulation modelling of the initial assignments of exams to time-slots provides an alternative approach to the establishment of a set of feasible solutions that are subsequently optimized. In this research, we analyze two backtracking strategies for reassigning exams after the initial allocation of exams to time-slots. We propose two approaches for backtracking, BT1 and BT2. The study indicates that backtracking is an effective approach for improving the quality of the examination schedule where BT2 has outperformed BT1 in a number of cases.
