Standard optimisation

This optimisation method searches for a complete solution where all courses are scheduled in clusters. In the first step of optimisation, the algorithm schedules the courses in clusters while ignoring the number of periods/week of the individual courses. In the second step, the periods/week are added and additional clusters are created for open periods. Standard optimisation is called via 'Modules | Course scheduling| Standard optimisation'. When you start optimisation a dialogue for entering the optimisation parameters is displayed.
