A very primitive version of Gotlieb’s timetable problem is shown to be NP-complete, and therefore all the common timetable problems are NP-complete. A polynomial time algorithm, in case all teachers are binary, is shown. The theorem that a meeting function always exists if all teachers and classes have no time constraints is proved. The multicommodity integral flow problem is shown to be NP-complete even if the number of commodities is two. This is true both in the directed and undirected cases.
