The cells in each slice are then examined for the latent preferences and the cells having data seeking connection is identified as choosing cells and the cells sought to be connected to are identified as target cells. A latent connection is then added to either the choosing cell or the target cell for each of the latent preferences, thus preparing the slices for potential expression into one or more conglomerate structures.

Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus and method for constructing a Constraint-Choice-Action Matrix for making decisions based on constraints. Columns (in one matrix orientation) state conditions. The column header presents a partial boolean expression. Such variable expression may be any object or type, e.g., a number, string, or list. An entry in a cell, selected using a GUI pick-list, combines with the column header, to complete the boolean expression. The set of boolean expressions in a row may be combined into an action boolean statement. If that statement evaluates to true, some action, represented as a row header, is recommended or executed. The matrix is applied to an instance of a context domain, for decision-making. The context domain may be represented in a model representing an instance of that domain (e.g., a product specification for configuration of a machine) in data and rules.
