Optimisation models
Models that compare feasible allocations or schedules against a defined objective.
When this is useful
An allocation may need to satisfy capacity, timing and other requirements at once. The preferred result depends on the objective and which constraints apply.
My contribution
I formulate the objective and constraints, analyse feasible alternatives and explain the trade-offs and limits of the result.
A computed cost-freshness frontier and allocation heatmap compare refresh schedules for 12000 records under group importance weights, update costs and two source caps.
What it covers
- Objective and decision variables
- Capacity, timing and other constraints
- Feasible alternatives and trade-offs
- Sensitivity to inputs and assumptions
The output
An optimisation model with the proposed allocation or schedule, its constraints and sensitivity analysis.
