    In general, search for heuristics in artificial inteligence, considering your problem being combinatorial.

    You can search about genetic algorithms, neural networking, ant colony optimization, simulated annealing, particle swarm optimization. Some of them maybe seem a joke, but can work!

    Can you provide raw input - and give us more specifics? I believe your request is not going to require AI, or be all that difficult. ^^^ < lol! > Great for creating an exam schedule for ant's!!

    Yeah, AI is not likely needed but; you need to remember to avoid using AS instead of AI.

    AI: Artificial Intelligence
    AS: Artificial Stupidity
    NS: Natural Stupidity

    Edit: Useful Google terms are "classroom scheduling algorithm"
    Edit2: Found a new to me wiki page on subject http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_scheduling

    You usually always so friendly?

    Whoosh, the sound of a joke or two going over your head.
