Abstract: A computer-implemented method for a dynamic computer-based appointment slot booking comprises a plurality of steps wherein appointment slots (and their attributes) in a locked database are entangled via one or more virtual umbilical cords in a manner analogous to the formation of quantum systems, in such a way, the entangled appointment slots comprise a system carrying a character of “wholeness” and wherein the database so formed is unlocked (made available for new appointment selection and entry), said act of booking a new appointment i) creates consequences to the entangled appointment slots (and their attributes) ii) reflects the “wholeness” of the quantum system.

Abstract: A workflow management system provides a GUI Configurability tool that allows an end user to configure the system's workflow screens, workflow logic and data fields without the need to rewrite any programs. The system allows each workflow screen to represent and assist each individual task within a business process that may be defined and illustrated by a flowchart. The workflow screens work in conjunction with workflow logic to create an accurate one-to-one mapping of the individual tasks and decision logic within a business process flowchart. The system provides published interfaces that allow the use of third party hardware and software within workflows. The system also provides published interfaces to integrate extensible code that perform custom functions within the system.

Abstract: A system provides a GUI allocation and scheduling tool that enables a user to configure and apply Schedule Flows that include scheduling logic statements, filters, matching functions, scheduling engines and Objective Functions to appropriately assign a plurality of jobs to a plurality of workers and resources. The user may add, delete and/or edit scheduling logic statements, filters, matching criteria, scheduling engines and Objective Functions to produce appropriate scheduling outcomes according to user definable objectives. The GUI tool also enables a user to evaluate scheduling outcomes and assess the effectiveness of Schedule Flows and scheduling logic statements by configuring and applying evaluation criteria. The system's platform architecture provides software interfaces that enable the integration of custom matching functions, scheduling engines and Objective Functions, and third party hardware and software functionality.

Abstract: A workflow management system provides a GUI configuration tool that allows end users to configure the states and state properties of workflows and workers without rewriting the program. The application also provides an interface that allows the use of extensible code to perform custom functions at particular states and at particular state transitions of a workflow.
