Adaptive evolutionary computer software products
First Claim
1. A method for automatically adapting a computer program to an environment, the computer program product comprising executable parts and data parts, the method comprising the steps of configuring the computer program product for the environment and executing the software in the environment, wherein the method comprises the further step of observing effects of the execution, i.e. metering its behavior of the executable parts, analyzing the inter-relation of the observed effects with the software, and modifying executable parts based on rules in order to reduce undesirable observed effects like inefficiency or failure.
