Abstract From the Canadian patent

The invention provides a method and system for automatically obtaining and analyzing error messages from end users of software and hardware products. Additionally, the invention provides a method and system of providing solutions that automatically and manually correct the errors. An ever-growing database of errors and solutions is maintained so that future identical or similar problems are expedited without human intervention. Successful analysis at any but the lowest level automatically allows previous levels to be taught greater efficiency for future analysis of the same or similar errors.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 10, 2001 and granted April 3, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 10, 2021.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 10, 2023.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
