ABSTRACT:
Connection relationships among prepared program modules are stored so that the modules and the relationships form a network structure that is directed from an initial state through an end state, and a program is generated by determining a path on the network structure and by combining modules along the path. In one aspect of the present invention, the determination of the path is performed in an interactive manner. In another aspect of the present invention, the determination of the path is performed by an inference device that issues user-friendly interrogations to a user and sequentially fixes the path in the network structure according to answers to the interrogations and to conditions effected by selected modules. The network is preferably pruned by taking necessity of modules and/or interaction relationships between modules into account before the path is inferred.
