Abstract
The Computerized Examination System is an important part in computer aided education, which not only examines the learning outcome of every candidate, but also provides feedback for further improvement. The construction of the computerized examination system is time consuming and requires plenty of domain as well as pedagogy related information. This paper presents an examination sheet optimization based on the improved particle swarm optimization. The results obtained from the study show that the improved particle swarm optimization effectively enhance the effectiveness level of the computerized examination system without the help of the educational experts after a lot of training.
