Abstract: A method applied in a computing device for arranging a meeting agenda includes obtaining combinations of m agenda items by applying permutations and combinations to the m agenda items. Partial combinations from all combinations of the m agenda items are determined. Once score values of each of the partial combinations are calculated, and combinations are selected from the partial combinations, the selected combinations are output as the meeting agenda. The present disclosure can optimize the arrangement of the meeting agenda to save time for participants of a meeting.
