OPERATION OF A COMPUTER BASED ON OPTIMAL PROBLEM SOLUTIONS

A processor-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product improves operation of a computer. One or more processors receive a question from a user of a computer, which requests a solution to improve operations of the computer. Based on an interpretation derived from the context of the request, the processor(s) retrieve multiple child solution instances to the question, where the multiple child solution instances are derived from a parent solution instance. The processor(s) direct the computer to simultaneously display the multiple child solution instances on the computer, and then receive a selected child solution instance from the user. In response to receiving the selected child solution instance, the processor(s): discard other solution instances from the multiple child solution instances; designate the selected child solution instance as a primary solution instance; and store the primary solution instance. The processor(s) then direct execution of the primary solution instance.
