Finds a solution to fitting employees with preferences in a schedule for shifts-based operation (GWT, Google AppEngine).
Finds a solution to fitting employees with preferences in a schedule for shifts-based operation using heuristical backtracking.
Shifts Solver is a Google AppEngine application. To try Shifts Solver install AppEngine SDK and/or an AppEngine IDE which allows you to run Shifts Solver localy or to upload it to Google infrastructure (you may use free AppEngine tier to run it). I implemented Shift Solver using Eclipse IDE for Java with AppEngine plug-in. Simply follow how-tos to set up the development environment and then use Eclipse project that can be found in my Git repository to import Shifts Solver project to Eclipse. Alternatively you may use your favorite tool/IDE to build and deploy the project.
