Summary :

This paper proposes a heuristic algorithm for constructing a new school timetable by revising partially the school timetable already constructed for the previous year. This algorithm is considered as an extension of the algorithm proposed in the author's previous paper which aims at constructing a new school timetable. It is noted that the assignments in the present algorithm begin with an almost filled school timetable, while the assignments in the previous algorithm begin with an almost empty school timetable. Numerical examples show that the computation time of the present algorithm is considerably shorter than that of the previous algorithm when a timetable for the previous year is available.
