FET - Free Timetabling Software 5.11.0 is a Application product from lalescu.ro, get 4 Stars SoftSea Rating, FET is open source free program for automatically scheduling the timetable of a school, high-school or university. It uses a fast and efficient timetabling algorithm. It is licensed under GNU/GPL.

FET version 5 is released. You are encouraged to use it, because of the new much better algorithm. The new 5 series version seems to be very performant. It might be comparable to expensive timetabling software. The solution is usually obtained in maximum 5-20 minutes.

Features:
1. FET is free program (open source). You can freely use, copy, modify and re-distribute it, as GNU/GPL permits (but please consider a donation)

2.

3. Fully automatic generation algorithm, allowing also semi-automatic or manual allocation

4. Platform independent implementation, allowing running on GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac and any system that Qt supports

5. Powerful flexible modular xml format for the input file, allowing editing with an xml editor or by hand (besides FET)

6. Possibility to view the currently generated timetable without stopping the ongoing simulation (as html on hard disk)

7. The resulted timetables are exported into xml and html formats

8. Very flexible students (pupils) structure, organized into sets: years, groups and subgroups. FET allows overlapping years and groups and non-overlapping subgroups. You can even define individual students (as separate sets)

9. Each constraint has a weight percentage, from 0.0% to 100.0% (some special constraints can have only 100% weight percentage possible)

10. Maximum total number of hours (periods) per day: 60 (can be increased, but until now nobody suggested a larger value)

11. Maximum number of working days per week: 28 (can be increased, but until now nobody suggested a larger value)

21. Maximum number of time constraints: 10000 (can be increased, but until now nobody suggested a larger value)

22. Maximum number of space constraints: 10000 (can be increased, but until now nobody suggested a larger value)
