Patent attributes
Systems, methods, and devices, including computer-readable media, for managing operation of devices in complex systems and changing environments. In some implementations, a server system stores data indicating management plans for each of a plurality of different devices, each management plan indicating a device-specific set of program states for programs in a predetermined set of programs. The server system alters the management plans and enforces interdependence of the programs, and the server system generates a customized instruction that alters operation of the device according to the device-specific set of program states assigned in the altered management plan for the device. The server system causes each device to perform one or more operations of the device determined according to the device-specific set of program states assigned in the altered management plan for the device.
