Optimize the study halls

The optimization of the Study Halls consist of uniformly distributing the number of students or classes in the Study Hall. For this, EDT modifies the timetables while complying with the constraints, without de-positioning a course. It is preferable to conduct this optimization before creating Study Hall courses (Study Hall).

Optimize the Study Halls

 Prerequisite  All the courses are placed.

  1. Go to the menu Calculate > Optimize Study Halls.
  2. On the right choose to optimize in accordance with the number of classes or students. The number is displayed slot by slot in the grid on the left.
  3. Tick the ranges to be taken into account.
  4. Select the method Standard to begin with.
  5. In the frame Occupancy, EDT indicates the maximum number of classes per time slot and the average of the number of classes in Study Hall. The optimization will harmonize the intervals.
  6. Click on the button Launch the optimization.
  7. If you think that the results can be improved, launch the advanced optimization once the standard optimization has finished.
