## 4. Mathematical Optimization Formulation

#### Decision Variables
Let \( x_{c,p,t} \) be a binary decision variable where:  
- \( x_{c,p,t} = 1 \) if program \( p \) is scheduled on channel \( c \) at time slot \( t \),  
- \( x_{c,p,t} = 0 \) otherwise.  

#### Objective Function
Maximize the total viewership share:  
\[
\text{Maximize } \sum_{c} \sum_{p} \sum_{t} (\text{program\_shares.share\_in\_percent}_{c,p} \times \text{channel\_ratings.rating\_in\_percent}_{c}) \times x_{c,p,t}
\]  
Data Source Verification:  
- \( \text{program\_shares.share\_in\_percent}_{c,p} \) comes from `program_shares.share_in_percent`.  
- \( \text{channel\_ratings.rating\_in\_percent}_{c} \) comes from `channel_ratings.rating_in_percent`.  

#### Constraints
1. **Program Uniqueness**: Each program can be broadcast at most once across all channels and time slots:  
\[
\sum_{c} \sum_{t} x_{c,p,t} \leq 1 \quad \forall p
\]  
Data Source Verification: This constraint ensures no program is over-scheduled.  

2. **Channel Time Slot Limit**: Each channel can use at most 5 time slots:  
\[
\sum_{p} \sum_{t} x_{c,p,t} \leq 5 \quad \forall c
\]  
Data Source Verification: This constraint ensures no channel exceeds its time slot limit.  

3. **Local Program Requirement**: Each channel must broadcast at least 2 local programs:  
\[
\sum_{p \in \text{Local}} \sum_{t} x_{c,p,t} \geq 2 \quad \forall c
\]  
Data Source Verification: \( p \in \text{Local} \) is determined by `program_origins.origin = 'Local'`.  

4. **Binary Decision Variables**:  
\[
x_{c,p,t} \in \{0, 1\} \quad \forall c, p, t
\]  
Data Source Verification: This ensures \( x_{c,p,t} \) is binary.  

This is a complete, immediately solvable Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MIP) model with all numerical coefficients derived from the provided data.

### Execution Results
**Status**: ERROR
**Error**: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/tmpv2n5llqq.py", line 95, in <module>

AssertionError: Program shares length mismatch

**Analysis**: Gurobipy failed due to a data mismatch error. The error message indicates that the length of `program_shares` does not match the expected length based on the number of programs and channels. This suggests a potential issue with data preparation or input validation.

## 8. Cross-Solver Analysis and Final Recommendation

### Solver Results Comparison

| Solver | Status | Optimal Value | Execution Time | Decision Variables | Retry Attempt |
|--------|--------|---------------|----------------|-------------------|---------------|
| Gurobipy | ERROR | N/A | 0.43s | N/A | 4 |
| Docplex | ERROR | N/A | 5.85s | N/A | 4 |
| Pyomo | ERROR | N/A | 1.23s | N/A | 4 |

### Solver Consistency Analysis
**Result**: Solvers produced inconsistent results
**Inconsistent Solvers**: gurobipy, docplex, pyomo
**Potential Issues**:
- Data preparation error: The length of `program_shares` does not match the expected dimensions.
- Input validation failure: The data may not have been properly checked before being passed to the solvers.
- Potential missing or incorrect data in the `program_shares` dataset.
**Solver Retry Summary**: gurobipy: 4 attempts, docplex: 4 attempts, pyomo: 4 attempts

### Final Recommendation
**Confidence Level**: LOW
**Preferred Solver(s)**: none
**Reasoning**: All solvers failed due to the same data mismatch error. The issue must be resolved in the data preparation or input validation stage before any solver can be used effectively.

### Business Interpretation
**Overall Strategy**: The optimization process failed due to a data mismatch, meaning no valid schedule could be generated. This could lead to suboptimal program scheduling and potential loss of viewership.
**Objective Value Meaning**: Not applicable due to solver failure.
**Resource Allocation Summary**: Not applicable due to solver failure.
**Implementation Recommendations**: 1. Verify the `program_shares` dataset to ensure it matches the expected dimensions. 2. Implement robust input validation to catch data mismatches before running the optimization. 3. Re-run the optimization with corrected data to generate a valid schedule.
