Publication number: 20180075415Abstract: A method of matching a job-seeking driver with a driving job is implemented with the aid of a data-processing system including a computer memory and a job-match algorithm. The data-processing system receives data relating to driver jobs for which drivers are sought and stores in the computer memory a uniquely-identifiable job-data file corresponding to each driver job for which data has been received. Additionally, the data-processing system receives driver-related data associated with job-seeking drivers and stores in the computer memory a uniquely-identifiable driver-data file corresponding to each job-seeking driver for which data has been received. A stored job-date file is algorithmically matched with a stored driver-data file based on a predetermined set of job-match threshold criteria. Information relating to a stored job-date file to which a driver-date file is algorithmically matched is rendered available to the driver associated with the driver-date file through an output interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2016Publication date: March 15, 2018Inventors: James A.
