Developing novel meta-heuristic, hyper-heuristic and cooperative search for course timetabling problems

The research presented in this PhD thesis focuses on the problem of university course timetabling, and examines the various ways in which metaheuristics, hyperheuristics and cooperative heuristic search techniques might be applied to this sort of problem. The university course timetabling problem is...
