Abstract: Techniques for committing back end computing resources to an online stream of requests for data from client devices are described herein. A polling schedule server (e.g., a reservation management system), may receive polling reservation requests from a plurality of client devices, may evaluate each client device's need for “fresh” data based on a number of input signals, and may assign the client device a polling slot (e.g., a reservation for a future polling time). The polling scheduler server may subsequently receive a polling request from a client device and, upon validating a token received from the client device as well as a difference between an assigned polling time and the polling request timestamp, may grant the polling request by transmitting a request to one or more communication system servers, receiving data from the communication system servers, and providing the data to the client device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a software application for tracking the impact of a change event on a budget for a project. In one aspect, a computing system may receive user input defining a given change event that comprises a line item, and setting an estimated revenue for the line item to a dynamic amount that is to track a most-firm cost for the first line item. Based on the received user input and the estimated revenue for the line item, the computing system may create a data record that represents the given change event, detect a more-firm cost available for the line item, and based on detecting the more-firm cost available for the line item, (i) determine an updated most-firm cost for the line item and (ii) determine an updated estimated revenue for the line item to track the updated most-firm cost for the line item.
