  • Method and structure for risk-based resource planning for configurable products
    Patent number: 11593722
    Abstract: A method for planning under uncertainty is disclosed. The method includes steps of processing a stochastic programming formulation based on forecast values of at least one of product and service configurations, and determining a resource requirements plan for one or more planning periods in a non-deterministic bill of resources of at least two levels.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and system for optimal selection of targets based on business rules and resource availability
    Publication number: 20080027900
    Abstract: A method and system for solving a problem construct. The problem construct includes an input set of targets that may satisfy a request based on at least one rule. The method and system specifies the problem construct, recasts the problem construct as at least one of a set cover problem and an integer program and approximately solves the at least one set cover problem and the integer program.
