Hazel - Ett mjukvarusystem för automatisk och optimal schemaläggning

Abstract

This report documents the development of a software system for automatic scheduling called Hazel. This system is comprised of a server where an automatic scheduler has been implemented, as well as a web and mobile application that allows users to interact with the system. The scheduler has been developed with the functional programming language Haskell and uses a SAT-solver. Manual scheduling has long been the bane of managers everywhere, as matching the needs of the employer with those of the employee is often a difficult and time-consuming task. There already exists several automatic schedulers that attempt to solve this problem. The issue with said schedulers is that thay tend to be expensive, or developed to only fulfill the needs of a particular organisation. As such, this project has developed a generic scheduler that may be used within several types of smaller organisations.
