Abstract: Existing digital marking systems employ round robin mechanism for assigning candidate responses to faculty members for correction which may require manually feeding routing data. These mechanisms do not accommodate specific requirements when rules are to be applied for answer scripts assignment to markers and do not take into consideration marking quality and schedule. Present disclosure provides systems and methods that achieve high marking standards by assigning answer script to a most eligible marker wherein parts of answer script are assigned to most eligible domain marker in case of segmented marking. Marker and answer script attributes are captured that form part of assignment rules thus enabling creation of conditions. Marker profiles are generated based on expertise and availability.
