Patent CA-2412619-C (CA)
Title: Carte intercalaire
Inventor: MYER DAVID E SR
IPC: G06K19/06
Filed: 2001-06-11
Granted: 2009-04-28
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un matériau substrat de carte intercalaire (23) destiné à des machines de traitement à haute vitesse de documents telles que des processeurs de monnaie. Ce substrat est imprimé avec un réseau de bandes (18) magnétiques espacées latéralement de façon périodique sur une zone de la face de ce substrat. De plus, un ensemble code lisible par machine de blocs (24) clairs et sombres représentent des données sélectionnées et imprimées dans au moins une partie de ce même espace du substrat, lequel est occupé par les bandes magnétiques avec ces blocs clair et sombre recouvrant dans le sens de la largeur ainsi que dans le sens de la longueur des surfaces entre ces bandes. Les entrelacs de ces bandes magnétiques et de ces blocs clairs et sombres permettent un codage de cette carte intercalaire avec des champs de données optiques relativement grands, ce qui permet d'utiliser des capteurs à faible résolution pour détecter les données optiques utilisées et identifier de façon unique chaque carte intercalaire sans brouiller la fonction des bandes magnétiques.

Title: Digital multimedia contact center
Inventor: STINE ART
IPC: G06F15/00
Filed: 2002-01-24
Granted: 2009-04-21
Abstract: A tiered service model for a digital multimedia contact center assigns an entering contact to an initial service tier based on routing criteria for the contact and may escalate or de-escalate the contact to a different service tier if the routing criteria changes. The routing criteria is initially determined based on a media type associated with the contact. The digital multimedia contact center contains a set of media routers, each of which passes a contact of a particular media type to a workflow engine which executes workflows to direct the processing of contacts at service tiers that require agent activity. Agents are allocated to contacts by a dynamic automate contact distributor and the appropriate media router is used to route the contact to an agent. The workflow engine also executes workflows for agents to control the allocation of agents to contacts.
