Abstract

A software system that automates the use of computing systems by storing English language sentences using synonyms and symbol words to allow user access to computer resources without having to know the technical details or the specifics associated with a body of knowledge. Synonym sentences allow users to get to computer resources using different words stored in different sentences that open the same computer resource (i.e.: a document) to significantly improve a first time request for information. Sentences learned (stored) in text or SQL databases or used in a software agent sentence or search engine sentence are automatically parsed and directed to the appropriate knowledge repository to automated computer processes or to get user information without having to know any technical details required to navigate through computer systems or computer data. Multiple words or sentences can be linked together with computer resources to further automate job tasks.

Dependent claims

A method of digitally storing English language sentences in Knowledge Management (KM) SQL databases using symbolic (symbol) and synonyms words, performed by an application, comprising the steps of:

providing a plurality of KM SQL databases, wherein each KM SQL database comprises at least a solution table, a sentence table and an attachment table;
digitally storing an input letter or letters comprising alpha characters, a symbol or symbols comprising non alpha characters, a word or words comprising alpha characters, and a symbol word or words comprising both alpha and non-alpha characters in the solution table wherein the solution table stores an English language sentence as input by a user, the sentence table stores each word from the solution table using synonyms, and singular form of the word as determined by a digitally stored synonym dictionary, and the attachment table is used to hold a value of a filename, a URL, a computer program, a SQL query, or a computer resource defined as a mechanism in a computer that runs a process;
digitally storing, in the solution table, a concatenated word (version) of the stored input letters, symbols, words, and symbol words from the stored English language sentence wherein the concatenated word becomes an attachment handle wherein the attachment handle associates/connects the stored English language sentence to a plurality of computer resources and wherein the attachment handle contains words in the stored English language sentence minus prepositions, nouns used as verbs in a sentence, adverbs, and verbs, and the words are concatenated together to form one word without spaces
digitally storing a plurality of letters, symbols, words, synonyms, symbol words and English language sentences in the solution table to be fed back to an input of the application in response to input words or sentences from a user or from a KM repository text file or from a KM SQL database or from a software agent;
obtaining a concatenated synonym word for an input word from the digitally stored synonym dictionary, substituting said input word by said concatenated synonym word and storing said concatenated synonym word in the sentence table;
attaching a digitally stored English language sentence in the solution table to a plurality of computer resources in the attachment table, wherein the plurality of computer resources comprising URLs, computer files, computer programs, or SQL queries;
digitally storing synonym sentences wherein the synonym sentences are English language sentences worded differently but directed to perform a same function/action;
associating the synonym sentences to a same attachment handle to open a same computer resource;
providing at least one KM text repository storing English language sentences;
and
using the English language sentences stored in the at least one KM text repository to select and open the plurality of KM SQL databases.

8 more elements

A method to retrieve digitally stored information in KM SQL repository/database attached to digitally stored English language sentences using symbolic (symbol) and synonyms, performed by an application, comprising the steps of:

inputting letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words from an information source or from a human user at an input of the application;
nearly matching the input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words to letters, symbols, words, synonyms, and symbol words in the digitally stored English language sentences;
displaying a subset of digitally stored English language sentences that match the input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words in the digitally stored English language sentences;
executing a plurality of computer resources associated with a stored sentence when the input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, symbol words, or English language sentences are matched to the stored sentence that is selected by the human user using a mouse or selected by the application when the stored sentence is unique to the input letters, symbols, words, synonyms or symbol words;
displaying groups of stored English language sentences by whole word matches, then by matched letters, symbols, and words mixed with other letters, symbols, and words in a word or symbol word in a stored English language sentence, and then by remaining unmatched digitally stored English language sentences;
and
causing an input English language sentence to bypass the display of matching English language sentences to input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words, and process a stored sentence's attachments including a plurality of computer resources comprising URLs, computer programs, SQL queries, files, software agents, and attached letters, symbols, words, synonyms, symbol words, and English language sentences using a word or words stored in a sentence table and related attachment handle in a solution table for the plurality of computer resources in an attachment table;
causing stored letters, symbols, words, synonyms, symbol words and English language sentences to be fed back to the input of the application from the solution table;
in response to input data received from the input of application, the application is configured to:
first check content of the KM SQL repository/database for stored English language sentences matched to the input data,
if there is no match in the KM SQL repository/database, then route the input data to a KM text repository to see if there is any stored English language sentence in the KM text repository matched to the input data,
if there is no match in the KM text repository, then check to see if the input data matches a Google or Googsyn query to Google or other search engines based on a start up sentence which was attached to other sentences in the KM text repository which are read by the application and allow the application to format the input data and send the format input data to Google or other search engines, and
process stored English language sentence matched to the input data;
providing a plurality of KM SQL repositories/databases to store English language sentences;
and
using English language sentences stored in the KM text repository to select and open the plurality of KM SQL repositories/databases.

13 more elements

A method to select a data repository or search engine or software agent by a context of letters, symbols, words, synonym words, and symbol words matching stored English language sentences with letters, symbols, words, proper nouns, synonym words, and symbol words, performed by an application, comprising the steps of:

receiving input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words at an input of the application;
searching a currently opened Knowledge Management (KM) SQL repository/database for matching stored English language sentences using the input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words;
searching a currently opened KM text repository for matching stored English language sentences using the input letters, symbols, words, synonyms, or symbol words;
searching for non-matching stored English language sentences prefaced with a proper noun defining a sentence configuration for a search engine comprising a plurality of words including letters, symbols, words, synonyms, and English language sentences sent to search engines on local or wide area networks;
searching for non-matching stored English language sentences prefaced with a proper noun defining a sentence configuration for a software agent comprising a plurality of words including letters, symbols, words, synonyms, symbol words, and English language sentences sent to software agents on the local or wide area networks;
receiving an English language sentence from a software agent and sending corresponding letters, symbols, words, synonyms, symbol words, and English language sentences to other computers or devices or back to a sending computer on a local or wide area network;
searching the currently opened KM SQL repository/database, then the currently opened KM text repository with an input English language sentence using English language grammar rules wherein the input English language sentence must have a noun phrase and a verb phrase;
if an input is not an English language sentence then automatically presenting searched words in a KM SQL repository/database drop down menu and then allowing a user to select a KM text repository menu button to see if the searched words were found in the currently opened KM text repository;
