Hello all<br>
<br>
Wondering if anyone has published/knows of any gems/libraries in Ruby<br>
that can compute timetables based on a set of simple restrictions<br>
(people can only be in one place at a time, meeting rooms can only<br>
hold one meeting at a time, etc...) Classic example would be building<br>
the schedule for a university.<br>
<br>
There are some implementations in Java, but I'd rather not go down<br>
that path. In case you are interested, links below.<br>
