OPTIMIZING AN ASSORTMENT AND ALLOCATION OF GROUPS OF ITEMS

摘要

A server computer system determines an initial configuration of group types of items based on an initial set of constraints. The initial set of constraints pertains to item data for the items and user data for a plurality of users. The system modifies the initial configuration to satisfy one or more rules pertaining to the initial set of constraints to create an optimal configuration of group types. The one or more rules include at least one rule pertaining to eligibility of individual users of the plurality of users to be assigned to one of the group types. The system allocates one of the group types of the optimal configuration of group types to corresponding individual users of the plurality of users and provides data describing the optimal configuration of group types and the allocating of one of the group types to the corresponding individual users to a system.
