This research has concentrated on exam scheduling using a
genetic algorithm for solving this problem. The paper has
tried to show that genetic algorithm is a powerful method for
solving timetabling problem, which are solving through
conventional methods and time period is fixed for
invigilators and subject. These problems of conventional
methods can be eliminated by making use of fitness function
provided by genetic algorithm. The various genetic operators
such as selection, mutation and crossover enhance the results
in various aspects such as through selection we can select the
best chromosomes on the basis of fitness function from the
pool of chromosomes and similarly through crossover
exchange of the information of the timetable as per
requirements. The future work of this research will attempt to
use this genetic approach technique for solving College realworld
exam timetabling problems.
