Scheduling is committing resources to the realization of an event at a defined time, also committing resources to a plan. Bus scheduling is a complex combinatorial optimization problem. The operations planning and scheduling process starts off with the designing of a timetable of trips that has to be served by buses. Each trip has a starting time and date and ending time and date. The aim of this research is to change the manual bus trip scheduling to a computerized bus trips scheduling system for UiTM Transportation Unit. Scheduling the bus trip manually will produce inefficient timetabling because there is no systematic way used to schedule the bus trip.
