Optimal Congress

CLI to find an optimal, personal schedule for the 37c3 congress.

Optimization logic

The optimization relies on a simple 2-fold logic:

1. Find a personal schedule that maximizes the sum of 'rating scores' assigned to scheduled events.
2. The schedule must be feasible, i.e. the times of scheduled events must not overlap.

Installation

pip install optimal-congress

Example Workflow

1. Fetch events and rooms from congress API:

$ optimal-congress fetch

Fetching events and rooms from API...
Fetched 49 events and 58 rooms from API.

Comparing API with cache...
Found 0 new events, and 0 removed events.

Updating cache...
Done.

2. Interactively rate events, if not already rated:

$ optimal-congress rate

Unrated event (1/65):

2023-12-28 20:15 - 20:55

• test export of schedule to iOS app via QR code
