From ODR to CSP: Optimizing Decision-Making with Timefold
Introduction The Organization Decision Record (ODR) framework provides a structured approach to decision-making by clearly defining context, constraints, and requirements. However, as decision complexity increases, manually evaluating all possible options becomes impractical. Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSP) offer a way to systematically optimize decision-making by leveraging constraint-solving algorithms. In this article, we’ll explore how to convert an ODR decision into a CSP problem and implement it using Timefold, an open-source optimization engine. ...
