Method and System for Optimized Task Assignment

This invention describes a computer program that helps assign tasks to people or other resources. It takes into account various rules for both the tasks and the resources, along with user-defined goals for how many resources to use, how long it should take, and what tasks need doing. The program then uses two steps of problem-solving to first create an overall plan and then decide which specific task goes to which resource, specifically focusing on human resources and their performance.

Why it matters: Filed before advanced AI/ML optimization techniques were widely accessible for dynamic scheduling. Modern computational power and algorithmic advancements could make the 'first and second optimization schemes' significantly more effective and adaptable now.
