A hierarchical timetable is one made by recursively joining smaller timetables together into larger ones. Hierarchical timetables exhibit a desirable regularity of structure, at the cost of some limitation of choice in construction. This paper describes a method of specifying hierarchical timetables using mathematical operators, and introduces a data structure which supports the efficient and flexible construction of timetables specified in this way. The approach has been implemented in KTS, a web-based high school timetabling system created by the author. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
