  • Patent number: 9104736
    Abstract: Systems and methods consistent with the invention relate to matching user attributes. In one exemplary implementation, the system and methods may store predetermined general attribute descriptors reflecting attributes of users generally, receive personal attribute descriptors selected from the predetermined general attribute descriptors as corresponding to attributes of a first user and a second user, receive a rating associated with each received personal attribute descriptor, compare at least one personal attribute descriptor associated with the first user with at least one personal attribute descriptor associated with the second user to determine a descriptor match, and calculate a match score based on the determined descriptor match and the received ratings. In addition, first and second display points may be displayed and may be separated by a one-dimensional display distance that is a function of the calculated match score.

  • Publication number: 20120265568
    Abstract: Systems and methods consistent with the invention relate to calculating a return on investment score of an application for an organization. In one exemplary implementation, the system and methods may receive a plurality of data items that reflect content created by a user, each of the plurality of data items corresponding to data item categories; receive a plurality of designations associated with the data items; and calculate return on investment scores for the data item categories based on the designations and the data items.
