A study on constructing an efficient examination scheduling system

The objective of this study is to investigate the final exam scheduling process at the Ho Chi Minh City Open University and develop an automated exam scheduling application. Our primary objectives are to prevent students from having conflicting exam schedules and to ensure that no student has to take more than two exams on the same day. This research focuses on applying graph coloring algorithms to the problem of automatic exam scheduling. Our research findings indicate that the graph coloring algorithm is highly effective for automated exam scheduling. This study has the potential to expand and support the development of an automatic exam scheduling and management system, in line with our overall goals. We conduct the experiments on the practical data at HCMCOU and obtain promising results.
