  • Patent number: 12039500
    Abstract: Implementations provide a calendar application for dynamic scheduling and adjustment of events, such as sequential training events. The calendar application is used to specify events that are to occur within a schedule of events, an order in which the events are to occur, and a duration for each event. The calendar application is also used to specify available time periods in which the events may be scheduled. Based on the specified events and available time periods, the events are scheduled into available time periods to generate a calendar, a schedule of the events that preserves the specified order of events. On detecting a change in the inputs, such as a change in the specified events and/or available time periods, the calendar may be automatically updated (in real time with respect to the change) to accommodate the change, while preserving the order and duration of events.

  • Patent number: 11934290
    Abstract: Certain aspects involve providing automated performance monitoring of statistical models. For example, a processing device is used for performing a statistical analysis on information in an archive to extract historical data, scores, and attributes. The processing device calculates performance metrics based at least in part on the historical data, scores, and attributes. The processing device pre-calculates summary performance data based at least in part on the performance metrics. The summary performance data is stored in files with predefined layouts, which are stored in a non-transitory, computer-readable medium. Segmented data is presented from a file to a user through a graphical user interface (GUI). In some aspects, various reports of the segmented data are presented interactively by detecting a selection by the user of a segmentation and displaying the corresponding segmented data.

  • Patent number: 11868969
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for managing a calendar application. A need to optimize a calendar is identified. Furthermore, a period of time to optimize the calendar is received or identified. All the scheduled events (e.g., scheduled meetings) in the calendar are then selected during that period of time. The attendees, topics and flags, if any, for each of the selected scheduled events during the period of time are extracted. Prior collaborations with the user involving the extracted attendees and/or topics of the selected scheduled events are identified. Collaboration data (e.g., participants/senders/attendees, topics) is then extracted from the identified prior collaborations. A list of actions (e.g., delegate scheduled event to another user) is generated to be performed on a selected scheduled event based on the extracted collaboration data. The generated list of actions to be performed on the selected scheduled event is then presented to the user.
