Fair Isaac has filed a patent for a computer-implemented method that generates a configured software solution using configuration packages. The method involves configuring a decision service, dynamically infusing configurations into a decision flow template, exposing the template for user modification, integrating it into the configuration package, and combining it with user input to generate the software solution. The method also includes receiving input for configurable decision elements and performing a consistency check for defined rules.

Generating a configured software solution using configuration packages
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20230281011A1) describes a computer-implemented method for configuring a decision service to generate decision data based on user-generated input, a collection of configurations, and a decision flow template. The method involves dynamically infusing the collection of configurations into the decision flow template and exposing the template for user modification through a user interface. The decision flow template is integrated into a configuration package along with configurable decision elements. The configured software solution is generated by combining the artifact, user configuration, and decision flow template. Input is received for the configurable decision elements, and decision data is generated based on the received input to perform a consistency check for the defined rules of the software solution.
The method also includes the use of user-generated input to select an artifact from an artifact library in a configuration database. The first configuration package includes configuration data infused into a first decision flow template to generate a first configured software solution. A user configuration is selected from the collection of configurations to specify parameters in the artifact, and a second configuration package includes configuration data infused into a second decision flow template to generate a different second configured software solution.
The configured software solution is verified to ensure it does not violate predetermined rules defined for the software solution. If a violation is detected, an error message is generated and displayed through a graphical user interface. The configuration package can be received by a deployment server from a remote computing system, and the configured software solution can be transmitted to a remote computing system.
The patent also describes a computer-implemented system that includes at least one programmable processor and a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions for configuring a decision service and generating decision data based on user-generated input, configurations, and a decision flow template. The system performs operations such as dynamically infusing configurations into the decision flow template, integrating the template into the configuration package, and performing a consistency check to verify that the configured software solution complies with the predetermined rules.
Additionally, a computer program product is mentioned, which includes a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions for configuring a decision service and generating decision data based on user-generated input, configurations, and a decision flow template. The product performs similar operations as the system described above.
Overall, this patent presents a computer-implemented method, system, and program product for configuring a decision service and generating decision data based on user input, configurations, and a decision flow template. The method allows for user modification of the decision flow template and ensures consistency and compliance with predetermined rules.
