Scheduling Research Virtual Center (SRVC) is a web-based system that aims at advancing the area of Scheduling Research, an area within the field of Operations Research. You can here share resources with others to advance the research. You will be able to browse and search for benchmark data, solutions, papers, tutorials, algorithms, programs, code, FAQ, useful links, etc. It is a one stop shop for people interested in Scheduling Research to visit and find what they are looking for. At the same time, we hope that this open site will encourage researchers and developers to post their scheduling contributions especially benchmark data to which other researchers can compare their algorithm performances.

To start, you can simply click on Browse in the menu above and you will see all available items. Alternatively, you can run a search with keywords. To upload items, you need to register . At this point the site is in its early stages, but as we have more participants, we hope to improve it and make it useful and usable to advance the research area of scheduling. Your comments, suggestions and contributions are greatly appreciated and we look forward to hearing from you.
