  • Abstract
    The following paper describes research on the design of heuristic repairers that have been applied to the output of an artificial genetic algorithm (GA) in a scheduling problem. The GA produces a coarse solution where constraints are not fulfilled at 100% effectiveness. So, heuristic techniques provide a refinement of the solution with one heuristic repairer for each kind of constraint which is not fulfilled.
