Unique algorithms

Profixio Scheduling is the result of more than five years of scientific research at one of Europe’s largest independent research institutes, SINTEF in Norway. Advanced mathematical algorithms ensure that the user can optimise a match schedule based on their specific needs. Currently – as far as we know – they are unique in the world!

Flexible parameters

Enter your own criteria and let the system create a schedule that meets your exact requirements. Manage important constraints and preferences from your stakeholders such as clubs, media and facilities and interweave these into an optimal schedule. With Profixio Scheduling you get total control over the matches.

Suitable for all levels

The solution is used at all levels, from complex top leagues in several different sports to very simple competitions at grassroots level. Thanks to the ability for the user to themselves control the parameter input the system is flexible and well-adaptable for various purposes.

Features in focus

Optimised scheduling

Let the algorithms create a schedule based on your parameters – fast and accurate.

Adapt to needs

Enter custom parameters and let our advanced algorithms build the perfect schedule based on your specific conditions.

The right match in every round

Control derbies, home/away matches and sequence of play – the right match in every round.

Full control over time and rounds

Define time frames and priority days per round – Profixio Scheduling optimises the rest automatically.

Save time with smart scheduling

Let the system do the heavy lifting. The algorithms schedule – you deliver the results. Simple, fast and efficient.

Profixio Scheduling (PS)
The future tool for smart scheduling

With Profixio Scheduling you get a powerful and flexible platform that makes scheduling easier than ever. Whether you are organising a large tournament, a league or a local cup, the system gives you full control over every detail – from ordering of matches and allocation of venues to times and resources.

Behind the solution lies more than five years of research at SINTEF, one of Europe’s largest independent research institutes. The scientific basis makes Profixio Scheduling not only practical, but also technically advanced.

Thanks to sophisticated algorithms you can create schedules that are optimised based on your specific parameters – for example teams, arenas, media, desired match times or special constraints. The system automatically analyses all variables and presents the most efficient schedule.

Profixio Scheduling is today used by organisations at all levels: from professional leagues within several sports to smaller amateur tournaments. The platform is scalable, user-friendly and future-proof – perfect for anyone who wants complete control and a smooth workflow.

Why are these advanced algorithms needed?

If 16 teams are to meet each other twice there are over 1.3 billion possible solutions. Requirements from media, clubs, facility owners etc. reduce this number to only a few. To find the most optimal solution based on the user’s constraints out of 1.3 billion is impossible without advanced algorithms.

Five years of research

Profixio Scheduling is built on more than five years of research at SINTEF, one of Europe’s largest independent research institutes. Through advanced data analysis and mathematical modelling, the researchers at SINTEF have developed algorithms that make scheduling both intelligent and efficient – with proven precision in every decision.

Most common questions about Profixio Scheduling

Profixio Scheduling is aimed at anyone working with planning and administration of matches, cups, leagues or tournaments – regardless of level or sport.

The solution is used today for example by sports federations, leagues and cup organisers who want to save time, reduce errors and create fair, optimised schedules.

From complex elite leagues to local youth cups – Profixio Scheduling is built to suit anyone who needs professional and efficient scheduling.

In the basic version there are up to twelve parameters that can be used and which govern the scheduling.

Examples of some of these parameters are:

  • Derby: You can require or prevent two specific teams from meeting in specific rounds.
  • Teams: You can require or prevent a team from playing home or away in specific rounds.
  • Home/away: You can require that a team does not play too few or too many home/away matches in a row.
  • Anti-team: You can require that two specific teams do not play at home or away in the same round.
  • Maximum number: You can require that a team has at most x number of home/away matches in sequence..

Some of these parameters can be chosen to be “requirements” or “preferences”. Desired parameters can be weighted if something should carry greater value than others.

As a user you are offered several possibilities to quality-assure the schedule:

  • Visual overview of the schedule based on different representations.
  • The system indicates which parameters have been met and how they have been resolved.
  • Easily compare different solutions against each other.
