Claim Text:
1. A machine-implemented method for implementing expert assessment of an update to fix problems for a product, the method comprising: identifying or receiving information regarding one or more target versions of a product in a client system; identifying or receiving a list of defects from a database; analyzing, using a computer, the information regarding the client system based at least in part upon one or more reasoning rules to determine whether the information results in deterministic or non-deterministic expert assessment; when the expert assessment is determined to be deterministic, outputting the expert assessment for the update to fix problems with the product based at least in part upon a result of the act of analyzing the information regarding the client system; when the expert assessment is determined to be non-deterministic due to at least a conflict in the information, generating the expert assessment based at least in part upon results of performing iterative analyses on the information with one or more additional inputs for the iterative analyses; and storing the expert assessment in a non-transitory computer readable medium.
