The following is a suggested procedure for designing a Dispatcher application:

  1. Prepare a data set for which you already have a solution and fit it into the csv data format.
  2. Simplify the model following the suggestions in this section.
  3. Use a simplified cost function to find a solution and then compute the real cost afterwards. Compare this real cost to the cost of existing solutions.
  4. Add the removed constraints one-by-one back to the model, moving from the simplest to the most complex. In parallel, restore the complexity to your cost function.
