Abstract: A switchless Automatic Call Distribution ("ACD") system distributing incoming calls to call agents networked via a low-cost data network such as an ethernet. Standard POTS calls are received from the Public Switched Telephone Network ("PSTN"), whereupon a POTS/packet gateway digitizes the signal (if necessary) and compresses it, advantageously from mu-law format (64 Kbps) down to approximately 5-6 Kbps. The POTS/packet gateway then converts the signal into a packetized format. Responsive to a call distribution algorithm identifying the next available agent by IP address, the caller's packetized voice signals are distributed to the agent over the ethernet. At the same time, Web-enabled database tools generate "documents," advantageously in html, containing database information regarding the caller. These documents are then distributed to the agent over the ethernet. The agent may then converse with the caller using a headset connected to a standard desktop computer running CODEC software to transmit and receive packetized voice signals. At the same time, the computer runs browser software to allow the agent to receive html documents and send back updated information while talking to the caller. As a result, the ACD system has been optimized into a switchless ethernet connecting agents operating standard desktop computers running low-cost CODEC and browser software.

Abstract: A method for scheduling personnel (e.g., agents) in a work environment based on personnel "skill" levels. The method facilitates true skills-based scheduling of agents in a telephone call center using a simulation tool to predict what fraction of scheduled agents from each "skill group" will be available to each "call type" during each time interval being scheduled. A feedback mechanism is used to adjust net staffing and skills usage data between iterations of a call handling simulation until a given schedule being tested through the simulator meets some acceptance criteria.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une formulation de concentrat agrochimique aqueuse. Cette formulation comprend (a) un électrolyte agrochimique comme des sels de glyphosate, du fomesafen, du glufosinate, du paraquat ou bentazone, (b) un adjuvant alcoxylaté, (c) un glycoside d'alkyle et (d) un co-tensio-actif qui agit avec le glycoside d'alkyle pour former un système aqueux structuré.

Title: Optical amplifier having a dynamically shaped gain
Inventor: JABR SALIM N
IPC: H01S3/13
Filed: 1998-08-18
Granted: 2004-07-14
Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for adjusting the gain profile of an optical amplifier including a pump laser and an active gain element by selectively controlling the electron populations of at least one Stark sublevel of the electronic energy levels of the optical amplifier's active gain element. By dynamically controlling the electron populations of selected Stark sublevels the gain profile of the active gain element can be flattened. In a first method for controlling electron populations two-photon transitions are initiated between a pair of Stark sublevels of the same energy manifold of the active gain element. Two-photon transitions are stimulated by two additional pump lasers operating at wavelengths whose difference approximates the energy difference in the pair of Stark sublevels between which electrons are to be moved. In a second method for controlling electron populations single-photon transitions are initiated between a pair of Stark sublevels of different energy manifolds of the active gain element. Single-photon transitions are stimulated by an additional pump laser operating at a frequency difference that approximates the difference in the pair of energy levels. Alternatively, single photon transitions are stimulated by operating the amplifier's pump laser at a wavelength selected so as to simultaneously cause electron transitions from the ground level of the active gain element to one of the higher energy levels and electron transitions from a selected Stark sublevel of the upper laser level to a yet higher energy level.
