## 4. Mathematical Optimization Formulation

#### Decision Variables
- Let \( x_{ij} \) be a binary decision variable where \( x_{ij} = 1 \) if student \( i \) is assigned to dorm \( j \), and \( x_{ij} = 0 \) otherwise.

#### Objective Function
- Maximize the total preference value of student-dorm assignments:
  \[
  \text{Maximize } \sum_{i,j} c_{ij} \cdot x_{ij}
  \]
  where \( c_{ij} \) is the coefficient representing the preference or value of assigning student \( i \) to dorm \( j \). These coefficients are sourced from the `ObjectiveCoefficients` table.

#### Constraints
1. **Capacity Constraints**: Ensure that the number of students assigned to each dorm does not exceed its capacity.
   \[
   \sum_{i} x_{ij} \leq \text{Capacity}_j \quad \forall j
   \]
   where \(\text{Capacity}_j\) is the maximum number of students that dorm \( j \) can accommodate.

2. **Gender Compatibility Constraints**: Ensure that students are only assigned to dorms that match their gender.
   \[
   x_{ij} \leq \text{GenderMatch}_{ij} \quad \forall i, j
   \]
   where \(\text{GenderMatch}_{ij}\) is a binary parameter that is 1 if student \( i \) can be assigned to dorm \( j\) based on gender compatibility, and 0 otherwise.

3. **Assignment Constraints**: Ensure that each student is assigned to exactly one dorm.
   \[
   \sum_{j} x_{ij} = 1 \quad \forall i
   \]

#### Data Source Verification
- Coefficients \( c_{ij} \) are sourced from the `ObjectiveCoefficients` table, specifically from the `coefficient` column.
- Capacity constraints are based on business configuration parameters for each dorm's capacity.
- Gender compatibility constraints are derived from business logic ensuring gender matching, which would be implemented as a parameter or additional data table not explicitly detailed in the provided schema.

This formulation provides a complete and immediately solvable linear optimization model, ensuring that all constraints and the objective function are linear and adhere to the problem's requirements.
