Abstract :
University course timetabling is one of the most important and time-consuming problem which takes place frequently in all the educational institutes. This paper proposes design and implementation system to generate timetable based on genetic algorithm using different combinations selection algorithm and mutation types. Two cases small problem and big problem are studied. The results show that two cases tournament selection is giving solutions better than roulette wheel Selection. The worst pair is roulette wheel selection and mutation. Mutation error method helps to reach to the best solution faster. In case of conflicts and no solution, our system generates a report, containing conflict constraints that must be remove or modified.
