Thisvolumecontainsaselectionofpapersfromthe5thInternationalConference
on the Practice and Theory of Automated Timetabling (PATAT 2004)
held in Pittsburgh, USA, August 18-20, 2004. Indeed, as we write
this preface, in the Summer of 2005, we note that we are about one
month away from the tenth anniversary of the very ?rst PATAT
conference in Edinburgh. Since those very early days, the
conference series has gone from strength to strength and this
volume represents the latest in a series of ?ve rigorously refereed
volumes which showcase a broad spectrum of ground-breaking
timetabling research across a very wide range of timetabling
problems and applications. Timetabling is an area that unites a
number of disparate ?elds and which cuts across a number of diverse
academic disciplines. While the most obvious instances of
timetabling occur in educational institutions, timetabling also -
pears in sports applications, transportation planning, project
scheduling, and many other ?elds. Viewing timetabling as a unifying
theme enables researchers

of the conference series to extend the de?nition of timetabling
beyond its edu- tional roots. In this volume, seven of the 19
papers involve domains other than education. Of course,
educationaltimetabling remains at the coreof timetabling research,
and the papers in this volume represent the full range of this area
including exam timetabling, room scheduling, and class rostering.
