Additional information
<22> This work addresses the important practical problem of generating university course timetables. It gives a novel and competitive method based on representing a timetable problem in two stages, which provides both a heuristic to generate solutions quickly and the ability to provide bounds. The paper contributes to the growing field of "matheuristics", and a recent article by Geiger in Annals of Operations Research (2012) refers to this work as a "development that carefully should be watched". The journal Computers and Operations Research has an impact factor of 1.72.
