2011 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Scheduling

The 2011 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Scheduling (CI-Sched 2011) invites research on all aspects of computational intelligence applied to scheduling problems. Due to their huge search spaces that have to be explored, scheduling problems cannot usually be solved by exact approaches. Therefore, significant research attention has been attracted on exploring techniques in Computational Intelligence (including evolutionary computation, neural networks, swarm intelligence, fuzzy logic, and their hybridizations, etc.). This symposium aims to explore recent advances in this area.

Topics

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

Computational Intelligence in:

Production Scheduling

Personnel Scheduling

Sports Scheduling

Educational Timetabling

Commercial Scheduling packages

Transport Scheduling

Other scheduling problems

Complexity Issues in scheduling

Comparison of Techniques (e.g. compare Neural Networks with Fuzzy Logic; comparison of a meta-heuristic approach with a CI approach)

Interactive Scheduling using Computational Intelligence

Experiences of CI within Scheduling

Case Studies

Theoretical or empirical analysis of evolutionary algorithms and representations for scheduling
