public class RoomPerturbationPenalty
extends PerturbationPenalty

Room perturbation penalty. I.e., number of assigned rooms different from initial. Only applicable when PerturbationPenalty.isMPP() is true (minimal perturbation problem).

A weight of room perturbations (i.e., a penalty for an assignment of an exam to a room different from the initial one) can be set by problem property Exams.RoomPerturbationWeight, or in the input xml file, property roomPerturbationWeight).

Defines default weight (when AbstractCriterion.getWeightName() parameter is not present in the criterion).

Overrides:

getWeightDefault in class PerturbationPenalty

Parameters:

config - solver configuration

Returns:

default criterion weight value

getValue
