Patent number: 12299643Abstract: Examples provide acceptance-based meeting insights and action recommendations associated with a meeting prior to a scheduled occurrence of the meeting using meeting invitee responses. A meeting insights manager analyzes meeting response data for meeting invitees a threshold time-period prior to the start time of the meeting. A score is generated based on the number of accept and decline responses received from the invitees. A meeting insights notification including a recommended action is generated and provided to the meeting organizer if the score indicates an insufficient number of invitees have accepted the meeting invitation. The recommendation includes a recommendation to cancel the meeting, reschedule the meeting and/or send a reminder to unresponsive meeting invitees. A recommendation to reschedule can include one or more proposed alternative meeting times for use in rescheduling the meeting. The recommendation is selected based on the amount of time remaining until the scheduled start of the meeting.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2022Date of Patent: May 13, 2025Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC.Inventor: Yaming Liu

Patent number: 12226901Abstract: A smart change evaluation engine analyzes an existing and updated Robotic Process Automation (RPA) system and process flow and evaluates identified changes in the process, components, elements, and controls. The smart change evaluation engine outputs an appropriate change estimate value corresponding to an amount of change and/or effort to modify the RPA process flow. The smart change evaluation engine analyzes the recorded changes and assigns a rule-based value for every corresponding component in the process flow. A scoring algorithm is used to generate a change estimate value based on the analysis of the pre-change recordings, the post-change recordings, and from the data values captured from the actual robotic automated system, by doing dual checks resulting in best calculated estimates. The scoring value derived is used as an input for evaluating changes for (RPA) that may be required to support further development of services and/or applications provided by an enterprise organization.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2021Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: Bank of America CorporationInventor: Siva Kumar Paini
