Method and system of planning and scheduling that incorporates inheritance, feedback learning, path optimization, and simulation

Abstract

Embodiments disclose a system and method for planning and scheduling, comprising connecting a single or plurality of similar computer systems via a local, private, or public network, creating or instantiating a plan a plan or plans, wherein the said plan is comprised within a tackle, and wherein the plan comprises a single or plurality of recursive child plans, allowing for organization, linking, interfacing and inheritance of a plurality of plans, a single or plurality of items, and for organization, linking, interfacing and inheritance of said items, performing an operation or operations on each item wherein each item can be broken up, perfected, integrated, or tackled, and wherein the encoded instructions further cause the computer system to request assignment through a series of assigning users, with the final assigning user assigning the first item for a first user who commits to the assignment of the first item; wherein the first user commits to constructing the item by providing a commitment duration range of time becoming the assigned user; delivering the constructed item by the assigned user to one or more receiving users; each receiving user accepting and rejecting the constructed item by the assigning user; and the system recording and storing critical analytics with respect to construction of the assigned item and its' delivery relative to the specified duration range; with an ability to modify given protocol between users on demand.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]Not ApplicableSTATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0002]Not ApplicableREFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING, A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING COMPACT DISK APPENDIX[0003]Not ApplicableBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0004]The present invention is in the field of social planning. More particularly, the present invention is in the technical field of managing and optimizing the production of constructed items, in terms of time to market, cost and quality[0005]For much of civilized history, humankind has engaged upon large and complex projects requiring the inputs of many individuals in order to achieve. It since became apparent that when scheduling projects, X working individuals do not often lead to X times improvement in project completion time. Rather, experience has taught that for a project to be completed, a good deal of resource planning, scheduling and dedicated resources allocated as project managers are required ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention allows a community of practice to create items efficiently and with high quality. It provides real-time status information and allows users to access and zoom in or out on the status data. It also allows for real-time adaptation, reuse, and annotation of complex objects and workflows. Participants can interact regarding time, cost, and quality constraints using items as a conduit. Additionally, it allows individuals to construct plans using object-oriented constructs such as classes, instances, and inheritance, providing flexibility in constructing plans similar to computer scientists.

Problems solved by technology

First, a large hole would need to be excavated where a foundation could be poured.

The scheduling methodologies above, while impressive, are also lacking in several areas.

Most significantly, the methods are wonting with respect to 1) relative rigidity as to what constitutes a unit of work with which to schedule; 2) limited ability to revise and enhance based upon prior performance and learning's, and 3) inadequate user interaction to optimize and plan work subsections on a piecemeal basis.
