Abstract: A pairing module comprising a memory storing contact center information that i) identifies a first set of available agents that are available to be paired with a contact and ii) identifies a first set of available contacts that are waiting to be paired with an available agent. The pairing module further comprises a contact/agent (C/A) pair selector that functions occasionally read the memory to obtain contact center information and then use the obtained contact center information to pair available agents with available contacts.
