The biggest difficulty of the timetabling problem is that we have to schedule all the courses to some limited resource, subject to many subjective and objective constraints. These constraints can be classified into hard and soft constraints. Any feasible timetable has to satisfy all hard constraints. On the other hand, soft constraints are not compulsory but should be satisfied as many as possible. This paper designs a new algorithm based on the proposed One-Way search strategy for constructing feasible solution for timetabling problems. This algorithm was tested on the UCTP benchmarks and the computational results were compared with some algorithms. We fi
