Patent number: 10860957Abstract: In a remote technical support system, a technical support controller receives an indication of a maximum number of support sessions to be serviced by a remote technician. Thereafter, the technical support controller receives a service request for a user device, which service request is classified into a category and added to a preliminary queue corresponding to the category. The technical support controller determines if handling of the service request by the remote technician would cause the number of support sessions currently being handled by the remote technician to exceed the previously-indicated maximum number of support sessions. If not, the service request is added to a work queue for the remote technician and removed from the preliminary queue.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2015Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: Accenture Global Services LimitedInventors: Roy Vera, Michael P.

Publication number: 20200382437Abstract: A multi-layer resource aggregation (RA) stack may generate prescriptive activation timetables for controlling activation states for computing resources. To facilitate operator control and adjustment, the RA stack may, at an aggregation engine layer, aggregate the computing resource into one or more resource aggregates. The computing resources within the resource aggregates may have similar individual activation prescription patterns. Machine learning techniques may be used by the RA stack to identify these related individual activation prescription patterns and aggregate the computing resources accordingly. Once aggregated, the RA stack may make a uniform activation determination for the aggregates as single units. Therefore, the computing resources within the aggregate may be controlled and/or adjust together. Thus, the RA stack increases the scalability of implementation of prescriptive computing resource activation state determinations.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2019Publication date: December 3, 2020Applicant: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Madhan Kumar Srinivasan, Arun Purushothaman, Manish Sharma Kolachalam

A document template may be selected as a matched template, based on the determined measure of similarity. Box areas from the input image document may be cropped out, and optical character recognition (OCR) may be performed on the box areas. Obtained recognized text may be automatically processed using directed search to correct errors made by the OCR. Statistical language modeling may be used to classify the input image document into a classification category, and the classified input image document may be processed according to the classification category.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2018Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Abhisek Mukhopadhyay, Shubhashis Sengupta
