Prompt:
You are an operations research expert analyzing the results from three different optimization solvers. Based on the original mathematical formulation and solver execution results, provide a comprehensive analysis and final recommendation.

ORIGINAL MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION:
## 4. Mathematical Optimization Formulation

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

#### Objective Function
Maximize the total attendance at events covered by journalists:
\[
\text{Maximize } Z = 150x_{11} + 250x_{12} + 100x_{13} + 250x_{22} + 100x_{23} + 150x_{31}
\]

#### Constraints
1. Each journalist can cover a limited number of events. Assuming each journalist can cover up to 2 events:
   \[
   x_{11} + x_{12} \leq 2 \quad \text{(Journalist 1)}
   \]
   \[
   x_{22} + x_{23} \leq 2 \quad \text{(Journalist 2)}
   \]
   \[
   x_{31} \leq 2 \quad \text{(Journalist 3)}
   \]

2. Each event can be covered by a limited number of journalists. Assuming each event can be covered by up to 2 journalists:
   \[
   x_{11} + x_{31} \leq 2 \quad \text{(Event 1)}
   \]
   \[
   x_{12} + x_{22} \leq 2 \quad \text{(Event 2)}
   \]
   \[
   x_{13} + x_{23} \leq 2 \quad \text{(Event 3)}
   \]

3. Binary constraints for decision variables:
   \[
   x_{ij} \in \{0, 1\} \quad \forall i, j
   \]

Data Source Verification:
- Coefficients for the objective function (attendance figures) are sourced from the `event.Event_Attendance` column.
- Constraints on the number of events a journalist can cover are based on business configuration parameters.
- Constraints on the number of journalists per event are based on business configuration parameters.
