Abstract:
1. A document merging method comprising: receiving, by a computing system, a plurality of documents, wherein said computing system comprises a memory system; receiving, by said computing system from a first user, a first command for tagging portions of each document of said plurality of documents according to various parameters, wherein said various parameters comprise parameters associated with a topic or category of information of said plurality of documents and a predefined priority or rating of the information, and wherein said portions comprise sentences or paragraphs within said plurality of documents; ranking, by said computing system, said various parameters; verifying and highlighting, by said computing system, said portions of each document; determining, by said computing system, if said plurality of documents comprise fragment and security errors; retrieving, by said computing system from said memory system, identification tags associated with said various parameters; assigning, by said computing system in response to said first command and in accordance with said ranking, said identification tags to said portions of each said document, wherein each portion of said portions is assigned an associated identification tag of said identification tags; storing, by said computing system within said memory system, said documents comprising said identification tags; receiving, by said computing system from a second user, a second command for generating a merged document; presenting, by said computing system to said second user, said identification tags; receiving, by said computing system from said second user, a first selection of a first tag of said identification tags, said first tag associated with a first portion of a first document of said plurality of documents; receiving, by said computing system from said second user, a second selection of a second tag of said identification tags, said second tag associated with a second portion of a second document of said plurality of documents; generating, by said computing system in response to said first selection and said second selection, said merged document in accordance with a merging template, said merged document consisting of said first portion of said first document and said second portion of said second document; and storing, by said computing system, said merged document in said memory system.
