Retimetabling
Retimetabling is the process of updating an existing timetable in response to new constraints, disruptions, or changing requirements. It is commonly used in educational settings to adjust class schedules and room assignments, but the concept also applies to conference planning, exam timetabling, and other contexts where time slots and resources must be allocated without overlap.
The primary goal of retimetabling is to restore or improve feasibility while minimizing disruption. Typical triggers
Retimetabling is usually approached as a computational problem. Methods include constraint satisfaction, integer programming, SAT/Boolean formulations,
The typical process involves data collection, constraint modeling, solver execution, solution analysis, and stakeholder communication. Depending
