The problem of team allocation is a complex task for humans to manage. We address this problem by exploring possible algorithmic solutions and implementing some of them in an interactive decision-support system. We collected a range of algorithmic approaches, introduced a convenient cat- egorization of them, and implemented one of the most promising ones into an actual software solution. We further held two distinct experiments with the implemented system. The results of these experiments show that the sys- tem finds an optimal team allocation with regards to the specified allocation objective and satisfies all specified constraints.
