Abstract: A time slot scheduling system is provided. Employees are divided into bid groups and a bidding session is created for a group of time slots in which preference time windows are specified for each employee in the bid group(s) of the bid to input their time slot preferences, and a bidding time window is specified for each employee in the bid group(s) of the bid to select their time slots among the vacant time slots in the bidding session.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for determining an optimum price curve to a target date and dynamically updating a price of a product in real-time in a store of a merchant. A merchant database contains and a third-party source provides information which is relevant to determining the price. An enhanced data engine and database generates and stores enhanced information which is derived from the merchant and third-party information and which is relevant to determining the price of the product. A dynamic pricing mechanism includes an artificial intelligence trained on the enhanced information and is configured to determine the optimum price curve for the product, and to transmit a current price from the optimum price curve via a communications network. An electronic price display is located in the store and receives from the dynamic pricing mechanism and visually displays in real-time the current price of the product.
