Abstract
Software that uses machine logic to generate novel work products by combining known work product constituents to create constituent combinations, by performing the following steps: (i) maintaining a constituent data store, the constituent data store including identifying information for a plurality of constituents used to make combination products; (ii) receiving a set of combination preferences relating to a desired type of combination product; and (iii) applying a set of eliminational rules to the set of combination preferences and the plurality of constituents to define a raw set of proposed combination product(s), where each combination product of the raw set of proposed combination product(s) meets all the eliminational rules.
