Abstract :
This article describes the solving process of the high school scheduling problem. Hybrid heuristic algorithms are applied to the constraint modeled problem. Constraint satisfaction is used to model the problem by the classes of the constraint solving engine (CSE) and a constraint programming library (CPL) which we previously developed The main hybrid algorithm used was based on simulated annealing, greedy search, guided search, and memory from Tabu search.
