The rapid advancement of information and communication technology significantly impacts
various sectors, including education, by enhancing administrative and academic processes through
sophisticated algorithms and systems. At Raden Fatah State Islamic University Palembang,
specifically within the Faculty of Sharia and Law, technology is pivotal in managing complex
course scheduling challenges due to increasing student numbers and curriculum intricacies. This
study examines the effectiveness of optimization algorithms in improving the efficiency and
quality of academic scheduling. We focus on two prominent optimization techniques, Genetic
Algorithms (GA) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), chosen for their capability to address the
complex optimization problems typical in academic settings. The research encompasses a
systematic approach, beginning with a clear definition of constraints and objectives, followed by
designing and implementing both algorithms to address the scheduling issues at the Faculty of
Sharia and Law. Our experimental evaluation compares the performance of GA and ACO across
multiple metrics, including execution time, memory usage, fitness, and adaptability to dynamic
conditions. Results indicate that while GA generally offers faster solutions, it requires more
memory and shows variability in achieving optimal fitness levels. Conversely, ACO, though
occasionally slower, consistently produces higher quality solutions with greater memory
efficiency, making it more suitable for resource-constrained environments. The best results from
the experiments highlight that ACO outperformed GA in terms of overall solution quality and
resource efficiency, with an execution time of 19.27 seconds and 14,218.14 KB. Specifically, ACO
consistently achieved near-optimal fitness scores with significantly lower memory usage
compared to GA. This demonstrates ACO's robustness and suitability for handling complex
scheduling problems where resource conservation is crucial. The choice between GA and ACO
should be influenced by specific situational requirements—GA is recommended where speed is
critical, while ACO is preferable in settings requiring high-quality, resource-efficient solutions.
Future research should explore refining these algorithms, possibly through hybrid approaches that
leverage the strengths of both to enhance their effectiveness and adaptability in complex
scheduling scenarios. This study not only informs the academic community about effective
scheduling practices but also sets a benchmark for future technological implementations in
educational institutions. |
