** Committee constraints
The $S$ relation is sort of odd. That one examiner /should/ form a committee
with someone they relate to by $S$. Let's interpret it as $e_1$ should not
form a committee to someone they are not related to by $S$.

The $A$ relation is similar, and easier.
with someone they relate to by $S$. This is not an absolute requirement,
which is not ideal for a satisfiability problem, so we will ignore this
constraint for now. The $A$ relation is similar, but clearer. For any pair
$(i,j) \in A$, we don't form a committee consisting of those examiners.

Each committee will correct their exams to times, so if the sum of all the
committees is $N$, then all exams have been corrected twice. Let's encode
that as a constraint.
** All exams are corrected constraint

the sum of all the committees is $N$, then all exams have been corrected
twice (presumably by two different examiners). Let's encode that as a

* Optimization
So far, we have found a way to model the problem and satisfy all the
constraint. However, it is preferable to have fewer committees, because all
committees have to discuss the exams, causing administrative overhead. Z3
also provides optimization, meaning that we can find a smallest or largest
solution for numeric theories.

** Minimize committees

** Dealing with /should/
Remember $S$, which maps examiners to other examiners they /should/ form a
committee with. With optimization, we now have a way of expressing that some
solution is more preferable than another. One way to model this is
maximizing the number of exams given to committees that consists of an
examiner $i$ that should be in a committee with examiner $j$. We want this
for all such pairs $i,j$, and can achieve this by summing all such
committees.
#+BEGIN_SRC python :tangle committees.py
def should_correct_with_weight(comms, S, C):
return sum(comms[frozenset([i, j])] for i in S for j in S[i])
#+END_SRC
When adding multiple optimization objectives (or goals), Z3 defaults to
order the objectives lexicographically, i.e. in the order they appear. If we
place the minimization of committees before the
~should_correct_with_weight~, then we still are guaranteed to get a minimal
number of committees.

** Optimize for capacities
Maybe we can try to satisfy (🙃) all the examiners by trying to close the
gap between their capacity and the number of exams they end up correcting.
Usually at the Department, there is quite a lot of flex in these capacities;
if you are willing to correct $50$ exams, then you will most likely be okey
with correcting $40$ and /actually/ willing to correct $52$. Therefore, we
can try to add some slack to the capacity.

a = sum(comms[c] for c in comms if i in c)
