A system and method provide real-time, optimal and actionable solutions for resource utilization, operations change management, and disruption recovery in complex business environments. An object-defined optimization system and method employs an optimizing engine to provides faster, more cost effective and adaptable ways to multiple, different company, market, and industry applications. Objects are acted upon by the engine and include states and rules to allow the identification of feasible solutions and optimal feasible solutions in near real-time.
Please help me write a proper abstract based on the patent claims. CLAIM: 1. A method for operational optimization including the steps of: identifying at least one feasible option; optimizing at a last possible point in time to act on the at least one feasible option; acting on the at least one feasible option; and, producing a solution based upon optimizing the at least one feasible option. 2. A method for object-defined optimization, including the steps of defining an object comprising at least one resource and at least one demand upon the resource; defining rules for the at least one resource and demand in the object; analyzing the object using the rules and identifying feasible solutions; and, optimizing at least one feasible solution. 3. A system for optimizing an operation, comprising: an optimization engine; a plurality of objects acted upon by the optimization engine; and, a plurality of states and rules associated with the plurality of objects that allow the optimization engine to identify feasible solutions and optimal feasible solutions.
