Patent ID: 11934840
Assignee: HEWLETT PACKARD ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT LP
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 10:
11. A method of a system comprising a hardware processor, comprising:
obtaining training hardware configuration information comprising a training attribute value corresponding to a reference hardware type;
deriving the training attribute value from the training hardware configuration information;
training a system classification model based on the training attribute value, wherein the system classification model, when trained, is to classify a hardware component of a reference computing device as a first hardware type, wherein the system classification model is to implement an ordered directed acyclic graph comprising a plurality of nodes, each node of the plurality of nodes representing a hardware type and multiple nodes of the plurality of nodes are connected by edges to form a first logical path to a terminating node, wherein the first logical path represents a combination of hardware components of different hardware types;
associating the first hardware type with a first reference system software for installation onto a target computing device;
obtaining further training hardware configuration information comprising a further attribute value corresponding to a prospect hardware type;
traversing the ordered directed acyclic graph to ascertain whether any node from the plurality of nodes corresponds to the prospect hardware type;
in response to determining that the prospect hardware type does not correspond to any of the nodes from the plurality of nodes, creating an additional node corresponding to the prospect hardware type; and
associating the prospect hardware type with a second reference system software for installation.
