003/**
004 * Representation of an examination period. Examination timetabling model
005 * contains a list of non-overlapping examination periods. Each period has a
006 * day, starting time and a length (in minutes) defined. Each exam is to be
007 * assigned to one period that is available for the exam and that is of the same
008 * of greater length than the exam. <br>
009 * <br>
010 * A penalty weight ({@link ExamPeriod#getPenalty()}) can be assigned to each
011 * period. It is used to penalize unpopular examination times (e.g., evening or
012 * last-day). <br>
013 * <br>
014 * A list of periods is to be defined using
015 * {@link ExamModel#addPeriod(Long, String, String, int, int)}, inserting
016 * periods in the order of increasing days and times. <br>
