Abstract

The Course Scheduling Support System is designed to facilitate manual generation of the faculty course scheduling process. It aids in assigning faculty to courses and assigning each course section to their time block. It captures historic and current scheduling information in an organized manner making information needed to create new schedules more readily and quickly available. The interaction between user and database is made as friendly as possible so that managing, manipulating, populating and retrieving scheduling data is simple and efficient. We have implemented an open source web-based prototype of the proposed system using PHP, MySQL, and the Apache Web Server. It can be invoked with a standard Web browser and has an intuitive user interface. It provides tools for customizing web forms that can be easily used by non-technical users. Our department plans to deploy this system by Fall 2006.
