Abstract: Currently there is no product that allows an attractive graphical home or building-like virtual presence on the Internet to be created—that would allow all the typical interactions or information dissemination that one would like to have with individuals or businesses reflecting their actual presence in a geographical location. Having such a product allows virtual neighborhoods to be created both by geographical location or by interests or by nature of businesses or many other such classifications. Enabling active interaction with businesses through the graphical presence will be useful in both increasing the footfall for the businesses as well as reducing the cost of their backend operational expenses by automating the interactions with their customers.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a machine and continuous data set including process data, quality data, specific actor data, and ergonomic data (among others) to create more accurate job assignments that maximize efficiency, quality and worker safety. Using the data set, tasks may be assigned to actors based on objective statistical data such as skills, task requirements, ergonomics and time availability. Assigning tasks in this way can provide unique value for manufacturers who currently conduct similar analyses using only minimal observational data.
