Abstract :
Examinations timetable is one of the key functional problems encountered in most Schools and Universities. The main objective of examination timetable is to schedule some numbers of examinations on a set of times that meet some of the constraints. This article shows that with data records related to Units taken from the previous terms, we can make some timetables for the current term with only minor difference. The Article must be compatible with the real timetables that were developed for the current term.
