Abstract

Scheduling resources under limited resources using tailored approaches can be done successfully. However, there are situations and problems that require a schedule to handle uncertainties dynamically. The changes in the environment could lead to a non-optimal schedule, which could lead to the wastage of resources. The infeasible schedule could also be an outcome of changes that would render the schedule obsolete, and a new schedule must be generated. The majority of the scheduling problems are solved by a heuristic approach that utilizes a random number generator, thus the outcome is not guaranteed to be optimal. Domain transformation approach (DTA) is a scheduling methodology that has confirmed its expressive power in producing feasible and good quality schedules through avoidance of randomness elements as highly used in heuristic approaches. DTA has been employed in this study to solve the water irrigation scheduling for urban farming. The proposed model was tested on three different datasets. It was observed that the costs obtained on all datasets without utilizing the dynamic DTA are higher in all instances, which indicates that the solution produced by DTA is of higher quality. Thus, dynamic DTA is a more effective way of scheduling resources with considering ad-hoc changes.

Abstract

Course selection is a key for success in student’s academic path. In today’s education environment, various courses offered by different academic institutions required the students to explore the course outline manually. Most of them are lacking in knowledge, having dilemma and making blind selections to choose the right course. Therefore, it is essential to have a course recommendation to provide guidance to a student to choose the course related with their interest and skill. This paper proposed to develop a course recommendation system using fuzzy logic approach. The development methodology of this system involves several phases include requirements planning, user design and construction for prototyping, testing and cutover. This study used the fuzzy rules technique in order to calculate each associated student’s skill and interest level based on Mamdani fuzzy inference system method. Then, the rules will generate final outcome which recommend the suitable course path and provide the details to a user based on their course test. The result shows the functionality of this system has been achieved and works well. This study is significantly helping the students to choose their course based on the interest and skill.
