This is a computer program designed to solve complex planning problems. You provide it with a definition of the problem, including what needs to be planned, the factors involved, and the rules it must follow. The program then gathers necessary data, calculates the best possible plan that satisfies those rules, and outputs the result using a pre-defined logic.
Why it matters: Filed before the widespread accessibility of advanced AI. Large language models could now significantly simplify generating or refining the complex planner definitions and logic blocks required.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
