Hyper-heuristics and fairness in examination timetabling problems

Examination timetabling is a challenging optimisation problem in operations research and artificial intelligence. The main aim is to spread exams evenly throughout the overall time period to facilitate student comfort and success; however, existing examination timetabling solvers neglect fairness by...
