Abstract(in English) The class assignment problem is to assign students to classes within the capacity of each class, in such a way that it satisfies them as much as possible. We can consider the problem as a kind of resource allocation problems. It is generally impossible to assign the students so that all of them are satisfied. We propose an assignment algorithm which reduces students assigned to the classes they do not want. The results of experiments show that our algorithm produces less number of those students than other known algorithms, and also show that knowing other students' choices is not profitable for any students.
