----------------------------------------------------
We want to let you know about the Special Track of our International
Timetabling Competition 2019. It will be organized at PATAT 2022, which
will take place at Leuven, Belgium, on 30 August - 2 September 2022.
Generally, papers can be dedicated to some aspects of all or selected
competition problems, their solution approaches as well as modeling
issues. Works discussing this competition in the context of former
competitions are also of interest. The aim is to bring together
timetabling researchers and practitioners from all disciplines
interested in the competition, its current status, or a further
extension of the university course timetabling inspired by the ITC 2019.
All information on the competition can be found at
https://www.itc2019.org/. Below you can find information about the PATAT
2022 conference. For details, see http://www.patatconference.org/patat2022/.
