| Due to the challenges of many real world applications in both research and practice, scheduling problems have received a significant amount of attention in a range of disciplines including artificial intelligence, operations research, engineering and computer science. Problems range from classic production scheduling to various applications in education, industry and business sections. Different constraints, objectives as well as problem characteristics have to be considered while developing efficient and intelligent computational methods for these complex and large-scale problems. Evolutionary computation has shown to be one of the most effective intelligent algorithms for solving scheduling problems.
