MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611020920 A) filed by Ajay Kumar Garg Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on Feb. 23, for 'an ai-based automated academic timetable generation system and working method thereof.'
Inventor(s) include Anmol Kumar Prajapati; Vishal Singh; Prince Kumar; Rohit Raj; and Mr. Bhupesh Kumar Gupta.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an AI based system deployed on a client-server architecture with backend processing servers, relational database servers and client devices connected via secure networks. The invention solves the technical problem of generating conflict free academic timetables amidst complex constraints like teacher clashes, room overlaps and capacity limits, which manual and conventional methods handle inefficiently with high error rates and resource waste. The system encodes timetables as genetic algorithm chromosomes, iteratively optimizes them using selection, crossover, mutation and elitism while evaluating fitness via SQL queries on normalized database tables, and provides web based visualization and export. It achieves reduced generation time (minutes vs. days), zero hard conflicts and improved resource utilization through hardware-software cooperation. The system finds application in universities, colleges and schools for semester, exam and training scheduling."
