Domain agnostic operational planning system and method

An operational planning system, comprising:

• a memory configured for storage of processor-executable encoded instructions;
• and
• a processing environment operatively coupled to the memory and comprising:
• one or more processors configurable by the encoded instructions;
• and
• one or more modules executable on the one or more processors, the one or more modules configured for assignment of a plurality of resources for optimal completion of a plurality of tasks, the one or more modules comprising:
• a resource manager configured to:
• receive resource data associated with the plurality of resources;
• and
• select from the plurality of resources, based on the resource data, a set of one or more valid resources assignable to the plurality of tasks;
• a task manager configured to:
• receive task data associated with the plurality of tasks;
• select from the plurality of tasks a set of one or more valid tasks available for completion by the set of valid resources;
• resolve one or more task dependencies associated with the set of valid tasks;
• and
• select from the set of valid tasks, based on the resolved task dependencies, a hierarchy of selected tasks available for assignment;
• and
• one or more customizable modules, comprising:
• an assignment cost module configured to:
• receive the hierarchy of selected tasks and the set of valid resources;
• determine assignment cost data comprising at least one cost associated with an assignment of at least one valid resource of the set to a selected task of the hierarchy;
• a resource selector module configured to:
• receive the hierarchy of selected tasks and the assignment cost data;
• and
• select from the set of valid resources a set of one or more selected resources by providing an assignment instruction to each selected resource of the set;
• and
• an assignment module configured to:
• receive the set of selected resources, the hierarchy of selected tasks, and the set of assignment cost data;
• and
• produce assignment data associated with an assignment of the set of selected resources to the hierarchy of selected tasks, the assignment data corresponding to the optimal completion of the hierarchy of selected tasks.
