  • Patent number: 8560364
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for rationalizing resource allocations. Stored information relating to resources may be retrieved. The stored information may include characteristics of each resource. A resource rationalization category that corresponds to at least one of the characteristics may be identified, and a sub-optimal deployment of resources associated with the resource rationalization category may be determined based, at least in part, on the stored characteristics of each resource.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 2003
    Date of Patent: October 15, 2013
    Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
    Inventors: Eric S. Vogel, Dean E. Moody
  • Patent number: 8311865
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for resource allocation planning. A future supply of resources and a future demand for resources may be identified for one or more future time periods and/or for one or more resource categories. The identified supply and the identified demand may then be combined to calculate gross gaps and surpluses in supply and demand for each of the future time periods and/or each of the resource categories. One or more resource allocation adjustments for addressing the gross gaps and surpluses in supply and demand may be received, and net gaps and surpluses for each future time period and or each resource category from the gross gaps and surpluses and the one or more received resource allocation adjustments.

  • Publication number: 20040162753
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for resource allocation planning. A current supply of resources and a current demand for resources may be identified and rationalized based on stored resource characteristics. A variance may then be calculated between the current supply and a projected supply of resources and between the current demand and a projected demand for resources for a future time period. The variance may be used to identify projected needs and projected excess resources for the future time period. The projected needs and projected excess resources may be determined based, at least in part, on the stored resource characteristics. The projected needs and the projected excess resources may be displayed, and an identification of selected planning options for addressing the projected needs and the projected excess resources may be received. A resource allocation action plan may then be generated from the selected planning options.
