Abstract: A system for processing multiple schedules, constructed in accordance with the principle of the present invention, includes an information processing system having a memory and a processor; an input device for entering user information; a display device for showing scheduling information; an interface for sending and/or receiving information from another source; and means for reconciling two schedules by building synchronized lists, from which the user may effect a reconciliation.

Abstract: A method for reconciling multiple schedules having time slots on a computer system including a processing unit, system memory, display device, and input device. An interval is selected which is common to the schedules and derived schedules are created for each schedule using the common interval. The derived schedules are then synchronized by matching like time slots of the derived schedules. Empty time slots are inserted into each derived schedule to correspond to time slots in the schedules that conflict. The resulting schedules are displayed on the display device for user reconciliation.
