✦ Synopsis

This example considers the problem of finding a suitable assignment of a set of referees to each one of a set of papers submitted to a conference, given the preferences expressed by the referees regarding the papers they are willing to review, the adequation between their areas of competence and the topics of the papers, and a set of regulations bearing on the global assignment. This example illustrates the issue of fusing heterogeneous data consisting of individual preference profiles and a set of global regulations.
