Abstract: In this paper, student admission process is studied to
optimize the assignment of vacant seats with three main objectives.
Utilizing all vacant seats, satisfying all programs of study admission
requirements and maintaining fairness among all candidates are the
three main objectives of the optimization model. Seat Assignment
Method (SAM) is used to build the model and solve the optimization
problem with help of Northwest Coroner Method and Least Cost
Method. A closed formula is derived for applying the priority of
assigning seat to candidate based on SAM.
Abstract: In this paper the optimality of the solution of an
existing real word assignment problem known as the seat assignment
problem using Seat Assignment Method (SAM) is discussed. SAM is
the newly driven method from three existing methods, Hungarian
Method, Northwest Corner Method and Least Cost Method in a
special way that produces the easiness & fairness among all methods
that solve the seat assignment problem.
