AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF CONSTRAINTS IN TASK SOLUTION GENERATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17931723 titled 'AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF CONSTRAINTS IN TASK SOLUTION GENERATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system where a controller adjusts constraints automatically to generate task solutions that meet defined criteria.

  • Data stored in data structures for a specific task
  • Constraints provided for the task
  • Task solutions generated based on the data and constraints
  • Determination of whether solutions meet defined criteria
  • Automatic adjustment of constraints if criteria are not met
  • Adjusted constraints provided to solution generator for new solutions

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various fields such as logistics, scheduling, and optimization problems where tasks need to be completed efficiently and effectively.

Problems Solved

1. Streamlining task solution generation process 2. Ensuring task solutions meet specific criteria 3. Automating constraint adjustments for better outcomes

Benefits

1. Improved efficiency in task completion 2. Enhanced accuracy in meeting criteria 3. Reduction in manual intervention for constraint adjustments

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing Task Solutions for Efficiency and Accuracy

Original Abstract Submitted

A controller obtains data stored in one or more data structures generated based on a defined task to be performed for a selected event. The data includes a set of constraints for the defined task. One or more task solutions generated for the defined task using the provided data are obtained. A determination is made as to whether the one or more task solutions include a task solution that satisfies one or more defined criteria. Based on determining that the one or more task solutions do not include the task solution that satisfies the one or more defined criteria, the set of constraints is automatically adjusted to provide an adjusted set of constraints. The adjusted set of constraints is to be automatically provided to a solution generator to be used to obtain the task solution that satisfies the one or more defined criteria.
