Methods of constructing a construction, and related systems and computer program products

A computer system configured to provide a schedule for constructing a construction, the constructing including a plurality of tasks, the computer system configured to:

• (i) for the plurality of tasks, receive task data corresponding to each task, the received task data including:
• data identifying task type;
• data relating to a planned task duration, and data relating to any relationships to one or more other tasks of the plurality of tasks;
• (ii) generate a plurality of task vectors, each task vector corresponding to one or more corresponding tasks of the plurality of tasks, using a first trained algorithm which processes the received task data corresponding to the one or more corresponding tasks, such that each task has a corresponding task vector;
• (iii) for each task vector, use a second trained algorithm which receives the task vector as input and generates data relating to a predicted duration time for the one or more corresponding tasks;
• (iv) generate a schedule including data relating to a predicted schedule duration time, using the data relating to the predicted duration times, the schedule including the tasks, which are ordered in the schedule;
• (v) provide the schedule generated in (iv), the schedule including the tasks which are ordered in the schedule, and the respective predicted duration times of the ordered tasks.

A computer program product executable on a processor to provide a schedule for constructing a construction, the constructing including a plurality of tasks, the computer program product executable to:

• (i) for the plurality of tasks, receive task data corresponding to each task, the received task data including:
• data identifying task type;
• data relating to a planned task duration, and data relating to any relationships to one or more other tasks of the plurality of tasks;
• (ii) generate a plurality of task vectors, each task vector corresponding to one or more corresponding tasks of the plurality of tasks, using a first trained algorithm which processes the received task data corresponding to the one or more corresponding tasks, such that each task has a corresponding task vector;
• (iii) for each task vector, use a second trained algorithm which receives the task vector as input and generates data relating to a predicted duration time for the one or more corresponding tasks;
• (iv) generate a schedule including data relating to a predicted schedule duration time, using the data relating to the predicted duration times, the schedule including the tasks, which are ordered in the schedule;
• (v) provide the schedule generated in (iv), the schedule including the tasks which are ordered in the schedule, and the respective predicted duration times of the ordered tasks.
