Graph coloring finds application in a variety of conflict resolution problems, such as examination scheduling. Since it is an NP-complete problem, a number of heuristic methods have been suggested for its solution. We present a new heuristic solution procedure designed to produce good suboptimal solutions with very little computational effort.
