This it the repository of a participant selection tool written in java with the help of JExcel API [1].
The tool implements two heuristics and mix integer programming formulations to solve the participant selection problem.
Definition of the participant selection problem can be cound in [2].
It is a great tool that helps project manager to decide how to select and deploy his/her volunteers.
It is designed for the need of project managers on our volunteer management system (VMS)[3].
On VMS a project manager can generate a spreadsheet of registered volunteers.
With this tool, he/she can better select and deploy volunteers.
Import the repository as a project.
Include the jxl.jar file.
Compile and run Main.java and pass in the the input file name.
Simply complie the Main.java file.
javac -classpath jxl.jar; Main.java
Then run the Main.class file and pass in the input file name.
There is a PSP_input.xls which is a example of a input file.
java -classpath jxl.jar; Main PSP_input.xls
