Course Scheduling, a.k.a. Timetabling, is a complex task. One wishes to schedule courses so that students can take the classes they want, without timing conflicts, so that faculty desires are accommodated, and so that facilities are effectively utilized. Constraints include room capacity and other attributes, classes that must be scheduled at the same time or on the same day as other classes, faculty that may be available only at limited times, and having a minimum "downtime" between classes. <P> Thoughtimus&#174 ScheduleWhiz Academic schedules courses while considering all relevant aspects of the problem. ScheduleWhiz Academic can be set to assign a course to a specific room, to one of a set of rooms, only to rooms that have particular features or attributes, to rooms within a specific building, or within a specified walking distance of the course's ideal location. ScheduleWhiz Academic will schedule courses at multiple sites, while considering commute times between the sites. ScheduleWhiz Academic allows one to specify faculty preferences for the number of teaching days, their time of day preferences and their preference for consecutive courses. ScheduleWhiz Academic uses an intelligently guided search process to identify the schedule that best satisfies the user-specified relative importance of over a dozen performance criteria. <B>During its automated search for the best schedule, ScheduleWhiz Academic can evaluate millions of different schedules.</B> <P><H4> This site requires the use of Frames.
