ICE (Intelligent Course Enrollment)

The Best Course Scheduling Software, Ever

ICE is a course-scheduling software that uses Greedy Algorithm to solve the Registrar's Problem

Note about isValid.pl:

Our test.py script (can be found in ~/Algorithm) has a function called test that contains the transcribed functions of isValid.pl and it evaluates the validity and performance of the schedule the exact same way. Our algorithm uses this python script to initiate the scheduling process and evaluate the output of the scheduling process.

To run it on all of Bryn Mawr's data

1. Navigate to ~/Algorithm and run the following command

python3 test.py -f ../data/parsed_data/ -s ../data/schedule_real.txt -a

To enable or disable constraints for the scheduling process, navigate to ~/Algorithm/main.py and change the default keyword argument values for the constraint of interest. This would toggle the constraint and allow the algorithm to run with or without the constraint.

To run it on random generated data

1. Checkout the without-constraints branch from the Github Repository
2. Navigate to ~/Algorithm/misc and run bash generateRandomInstances2.sh [instances] [rooms] [classes] [times] [students] to generate folder with test cases
3. Move the entire folder with test cases into ~/Algorithm/misc/test_cases
4. Navigate to ~/Algorithm and run the following command

python3 test.py -a
