LUrozklad

LUrozklad is a timetable management software used by educational institutions to organize courses, classrooms, instructors, and student enrollments. The name combines LU, often representing a university network, with rozklad, the Polish word for schedule, reflecting its scheduling focus. LUrozklad is designed to automate timetable generation, minimize conflicts, and provide up-to-date information to students and staff.

Key features include conflict checking, automatic room assignment, multi-term planning, drag-and-drop editing, import/export of calendars (iCal, CSV), and role-based access for students, teachers, and administrators. It supports semester and program structures, recurring weekly schedules, and updates when changes occur, such as room changes or cancellations.

Data model and interoperability: LUrozklad centers on entities such as courses, sections, instructors, rooms, time slots, and programs. It can import course catalogs from institutional systems and export schedules to standard calendar formats. Some deployments expose APIs to integrate with student information systems or learning management systems.

Architecture and deployment: This is typically a web-based application with a modular backend and a responsive frontend. Deployments vary from on-site installations to cloud-hosted instances, with security and data privacy measures aligned to institutional policy.

Impact and reception: Institutions use LUrozklad to reduce administrative overhead, improve transparency for students, and adapt to scheduling changes. As with similar systems, challenges include keeping data synchronized, maintaining the software, and ensuring accessibility for diverse users.
