URBAN-RIVERO, Luis E. et al. An Integer Programming Model for University Timetable Generation: A Case Study. Comp. y Sist. [online]. 2024, vol.28, n.1, pp.137-149.  Epub 10-Jun-2024. ISSN 2007-9737.  https://doi.org/10.13053/cys-28-1-4610.

This article shows an integer programming model, specially a binary programming model for teacher-course-schedule assignment, in a case study of a mexican university for schedule planning (timetabling), according to organizational requeriments of the institution, because this activity demands a high investment of time for its development, since there are various factors (internal and external to the institution) that must be met. This article proposes a two-stage optimization model for the allocation of schedules for a specific educational program. This model is applied to a course and its results are compared with the requested requirements, obtaining the model results in less time than the obtained by manual assignment, in addition to complying with the restrictions established by the institution, as well as with the requirements of the teachers.
