Abstract: A method is disclosed to ensure that components in a complex system are correctly connected together. In one embodiment, such a method provides a library of previous configurations of a system. The system includes multiple components connected together with cables. The method generates, from the library, instructions for assembling the system by connecting components of the system together with cables. The method receives feedback generated in the course of using the instructions to assemble the system and uses the feedback to refine the instructions. In certain embodiments, a configuration associated with the assembled system is then added to the library. This process may be repeated to further refine the instructions and increase a number of configurations in the library. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method is disclosed to ensure that components in a complex system are correctly connected together. In one embodiment, such a method captures a visual image of a system made up of multiple components connected together with cables. The method analyzes the visual image to determine connections between the components. The method further builds a current model that represents the connections between the components. This current model is then compared to a previous model to find differences between the current model and the previous model. If differences exist, the method notifies a user of the differences. This may assist the user in identifying any incorrect connections between the components. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed.
