演讲内容简介：

    Millions of people, all over the world, are enthralled by sports, be it actively participating or as a fan or spectator. At the same time, almost every sports competition needs a timetable, stating who will play against who, when, and where. Not that long ago, most professional sports competitions were planned by unskilled personnel, equipped with little more than pen and paper. A good timetable is important though, because it has an effect on the fairness and outcome of the competition, public attendance, commercial interests, as well as security and the cost of policing. As league owners managed to close astonishing broadcasting deals and the financial interests in the sports industry continued to grow, the importance of a good timetable became more and more apparent. The complexity of the sports timetabling problem depends on what should be taken into account. In this talk, a number of fundamental theoretical results and open problems will be discussed.
