What is a 3-way kidney exchange?

Congrats, great news! To be fair, ILPs are solved by rather advanced algorithms.

Yes point taken this was mostly for the joke of having a 2 weeks intern coding this quickly for such important use

For the geek answer since we used an open source solver the technical part was to decide how to write the linear problem to max weighted grafts under cycles of order at most K and at most M chains of length at most L. There are several papers on this

Congratulations. This is great.

And the biggest part of the reform has not been implemented yet: chains starting with deceased donors. For those interested here is our publication in a French medical journal https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1769725522000281?casa_token=0qYRx5OUzmwAAAAA:HqHhp7MmWcd6RVybuN4hOp1vZsit8a7EbaKqAzg3PtOGVsYpy_ZKmITACtI9-DOuTCqUzkJdVZo
