  • Optimisation of resource management using perfect knowledge bias
    Patent number: 9117172
    Abstract: Methods and computer implemented systems for evaluation and optimisation of methods used for forecasting, modeling, valuation, and decision-making, in staged resource planning are provided. Fundamentally, a universal comparator that accounts for perfect decision differencing (PERNOB) is determined and used for evaluating benefits associated with the use of prediction method-sets and decision-making method-sets in staged resource planning. According to one application, PERNOB is used to evaluate different prediction method-sets and decision-making method-sets and enable the selection of optimal method-sets corresponding to a given situation. According to another application, PERNOB is used to create an unbiased operational decision making environment through realistic re-valuation of system resource(s).
