Abstract
A television advertising management system that handles a plurality of deals for a plurality of advertiser, determines which of the plurality of deals have a guaranteed audience, and are under delivering, and allocates reserve under delivery units to each of the plurality of deals that are under delivering to bring each of the plurality of deals that are under delivering to corresponding attainable lower targets while honoring corresponding deal constraints. An under delivery value is maximized such that the attainable lower targets are met, while honoring corresponding deal constraints to provide an allocation solution, and a total penalty from deviations from selling title mix distributions, and weekly distributions is minimized for each of the plurality of deals that are under delivering subject to an additional lower bound on the under delivery value.
