Abstract

Many scheduling problems can be modelled as graph colouring problems. This paper gives a survey of heuristic algorithms used to colour graphs by describing a number of such algorithms found in the literature using an uniformn otation. We then compare these algorithms in terms of the time used and the quality of the colourings produced, on the basis of empirical results.
