摘要:
A federation system operating in a first enterprise includes a configuration server and a database for creating and storing federation configuration data and a federation registrar having an interface for dealing with a second enterprise seeking to federate. In the system the second enterprise connects to the federation registrar, negotiation takes place concerning details of federation, agreement is reached, configuration is stored in the configuration database, and the second enterprise is then coupled to the first enterprise through a pair of federation proxy interfaces, one at the first enterprise and one at the second enterprise, the proxy interfaces configured by details of the federation.

A system for assembling a business process or a portion thereof includes a rules base containing executable rules and defined business process elements, a workflow orchestration engine, and at least one interface available to a process beneficiary. Information known about and or provided by a process beneficiary interacting with the at least one interface is used to execute one or more of the rules causing assembly of a new business process or a portion thereof according to workflow orchestration rules the new or modified process directing servicing of the process beneficiary accordingly.

A system for generating usage statistics for a communications routing system from data generated at routing points and at end points of the system has a processor having access to the communications routing system for analyzing the data and generating the statistics, and a server having access to the processor for rendering the generated statistics into a format for display. The data used to generate the statistics includes routing path information for events routed through the communications routing system and optionally interaction histories recorded at certain routing points and end points in the communications routing system.

An apparatus includes at least one computing device configured to send a search query to at least one network server; receive questions from the at least one network server based on the search query; send responses to the at least one network server based on the questions; and receive a search result from the at least one network server based on the responses. The at least one computing device is further configured to send the search query and/or receive the search result via a cellular telephone network, a wireless fidelity network, and/or a digital subscriber line network. A system includes at least one server configured to receive a search query from a computing device; send questions to the computing device based on the search query; receive information from the computing device based on the questions; and send a search result to the computing device based on the information.

A transaction routing method in a contact center has steps for (a) identifying an initiator of a received transaction; (b) gathering information about the initiator of the transaction; (c) determining agents available to receive and service the transaction, and gathering information about the agents; (d) using the gathered information, determining a product or promotion; (e) forming combinations among the available agents, the initiator, and the products; (f) determining potential profit contribution or probability for individual ones of the combinations formed in step (e); and (g) selecting an agent to service the transaction based on the potential profitability determined in step (f).
摘要:
A network-based processing server for processing statistics and serving advertisements includes a first network interface to a first stat server for receiving consumer statistics, a second network interface to a second stat server for receiving response capability statistics, and a dedicated input/output port connecting the processing server to a broadcast network. The processing server selects and serves advertisements over the broadcast network to consumers positioned to receive the advertisements based on the processing of consumer statistics and advertisement response capability statistics against at least one rule.
摘要:
A management system for guiding an agent in a media-specific dialogue has a conversion engine for instantiating ongoing dialogue as machine-readable text, if the dialogue is in voice media, a context analysis engine for determining facts from the text, a rules engine for asserting rules based on fact input, and a presentation engine for presenting information to the agent to guide the agent in the dialogue. The context analysis engine passes determined facts to the rules engine, which selects and asserts to the presentation engine rules based on the facts, and the presentation engine provides periodically updated guidance to the agent based on the rules asserted.
摘要:
A method for creating a behavioral network graph has steps for (a) establishing a static network graph with intersections representing connectivity between nodes in a network; (b) determining behavioral characteristics of a person or group of persons in navigating the static network graph; (c) creating software agents mimicking the navigation behavior determined in step (b); (d) executing the software agents against the static graph established in step (a); (e) recording the navigation activity of the software agents; and (f) using the recorded navigation activity as a component in creating a behavioral web graph.
摘要:
A customer-maintained routing system for providing routing to a network provider for incoming calls from clients to the customer comprises a processor having a data link adapted for connection to a customer access point provided by the network provider, a router adapted to execute on the processor and to provide routing to the network via the customer access point, and a metadata-based information system maintained in RAM accessible to the processor and containing condensed client characteristics. Upon receiving a request from the network including a call identifier, the router accesses the database using the identifier as a key, retrieves client characteristics from the information system, and provides a destination for the call to the network based on the retrieved client characteristics. In some embodiments the processor is linked to plural customer sites by a wide area data network. Some of the linked sites may be customer premises call centers where calls are directed, and at least one may be a central customer database facility wherein client and/or characteristics are maintained and updated, and periodic updates are provided to distributed databases at customer access points and customer call centers.
