Abstract

The objective of this research and development project is to create an online application. The application allows a user to generate available timetable combinations for his subjects, with the purpose of letting a student have the ease and flexibility in choosing a schedule which best match his/her preferences. We report our experiences and the step-by-step analysis, design and implementation technique using a commercial CASE tool (Rational Rose) and the UML notation
