Abstract: A method, system and program product are disclosed for filling job orders, the method comprising: creating electronically a respective commitment reservation for each of a plurality of workers, with each respective commitment reservation comprising a commitment for the respective worker to work on a prospective job not yet created, with the prospective job having one or more job parameters; receiving electronically a job order subsequent to the creation of one of the commitment reservations, the job order specifying a job with one or more job parameters; matching the job parameters of the job in the job order to the job parameters in one or more of the commitment reservations to obtain a reservation-job match; and, securing automatically based on the results of the matching step the job in the job order to one of the workers with a commitment reservation.

Abstract: A method, system, and program product, comprising: scheduling teacher evaluation events for teacher-evaluator pairs over a calendar date period to comply with compliance dates, comprising: selecting teachers evaluators to form a plurality of the teacher-evaluator pairs for teacher evaluation events, based on the teacher electronic calendars, evaluator calendars, teacher categories, and a time-table; scheduling respective dates and times for evaluation events over the course of the calendar period; changing the electronic calendars of the respective evaluators and the respective teachers to add the scheduled teacher evaluation events; running a software routine to wait for receipt of data indicating a new conflict event and changing date and/or time for evaluation events and/or forming new teacher-evaluator pairs; and changing the respective electronic calendars.

Abstract: Disclosed is an Internet-based database system and method (ASP), that enables school districts and temporary employment agencies to automate the dispatching (24/7) of pre-qualified substitute/temporary personnel to specified school/work site locations for specific absent employees/job openings. The system includes a profile database of permanent and substitute (temporary) employees, positions, skills, working dates/shifts, rates of pay, work sites, lesson plans/comments, reasons for absence and corresponding budget codes. Approved substitute/temporary employees may access the database using a multi-level access and secure logon code through their Internet-based browser device. The software filters job/position information to match specific job openings to the skills, qualifications (certification), preferences and availability of the substitute/temporary employee/s.

Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods are provided for processing integrated circuit chip design. A three-dimensional Monte Carlo random-walk process may be applied to a cell in a hierarchical description of the layout of the chip to extract information regarding the cell. The information may include coupling resistance, capacitance, inductance, or combinations thereof. A neighborhood of the cell may be built and data correlated to the neighborhood may be stored. Such a technique may be applied from a bottom level to a top level of the hierarchical description of the chip layout.
