Claims24
A method of generating a function, the function for assessing a parameter, the method comprising:
- a) displaying a field for receiving a rule on a computer;
- b) entering a rule into the computer;
- c) transmitting the rule to a server;
- d) storing the rule on the server;
- and
- e) generating a function for assessing the parameter.
A program storage device containing instructions that when executed by a computer perform the following acts:
- a) display a field for receiving a rule;
- b) transmit a rule to a server;
- c) display a field for receiving a parameter;
- and
- d) display an assessment.
A program storage device containing instructions that when executed by a server perform the following acts:
- a) receive a rule from the computer;
- and
- b) generate a function for assessing a parameter.
A method of displaying an assessment on a computer, the method comprising:
- a) displaying a field for receiving a parameter name on a computer;
- b) entering a parameter name into the computer;
- c) displaying a field for receiving a parameter type on the computer;
- d) entering a parameter type into the computer;
- e) displaying a field for receiving a rule on a computer;
- f) entering a rule into the computer;
- g) transmitting the parameter name, the parameter type and the rule to a server;
- h) storing the parameter name, the parameter type and the rule on the server;
- i) generating a function for assessing a parameter;
- j) verifying that the function is valid;
- k) if the function is not valid, then displaying a screen on the computer that allows editing of the rule;
- l) displaying a field for receiving a parameter;
- h) entering a parameter into the computer;
- i) transmitting the parameter to the server;
- j) generating an assessment of the parameter;
- k) transmitting the assessment from the server to the computer;
- and
- l) displaying the assessment on the computer.
