Abstract: An improved system and method that allows a customer waiting, for example, in a call center queue to leave contact information, a preferred callback time frame and drop out of the queue. The system and method computes a priority access code and a time frame when its use is valid that coincides with the preferred callback time frame of the call center or customer service department, etc. In response to the request for a priority access code to use when the customer calls back, the system and method sends the customer a callback message including the priority access code and time frame when its use is valid. During the time frame the priority access code is valid, the customer contacts the call center for example by calling back or by initiating a web chat, etc., re-enters the queue and uses the priority access code. This allows the customer to enter a general queue at their convenience and at a higher priority or go straight to the head of the general queue.

Abstract: The period software licensing system allows the customer to create a software license schedule that includes one or more time periods during which application file usage is allowed and identifies the maximum number of concurrent application files allowed during the corresponding time period. The software license schedule may include a plurality of time periods each having a different corresponding maximum number of concurrent user allowed. The software management system authorizes concurrent usage of application files based on the time period during which an application file usage request is received and the number of concurrent users presently authorized.

Abstract: A dynamic information retrieval system for monitoring a conversation between two or more parties and automatically collecting a plurality of keywords used during the conversation. A priority is assigned to the plurality of keywords and an information database is automatically searched for information relevant to the conversation based on the plurality of keywords. A keyword list and an information list is displayed on a workstation display to allow an agent to directly select/deselect one or more of the plurality of keywords and/or information, wherein the priority of the one or more of the plurality of keywords and/or information may be adjusted. As keywords and/or information are selected/deselected, the keyword list and the information list are dynamically updated based on new priorities that may have been assigned to the plurality of keywords and information and/or how much time has passed since a keyword was mentioned.
