  • Patent number: 10897534
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods, systems, computer program products for managing a call waiting in a queue during a request for staff services provided by a call center. According to the method, a first voice segment received in a call made by a device is recorded first. Next, whether a part of the first voice segment is related to a first predefined voice segment is determined. The volume of device is adjusted in response to the part of the first voice segment being related to the first predefined voice segment. A user of the device is alerted in response to the part of the first voice segment being not related to the first predefined voice segment.

  • Patent number: 10698785
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for parallel task management. A computer system receives a new task that requests to access a resource may be received. In response to an access workload being above a first threshold, the computer system dispatches the new task to at least one predefined processing unit, wherein the access workload may be associated with the resource that is in parallel accessed by a plurality of existing tasks.
