Abstract:
A management system for guiding an agent in a media-specific dialogue has a conversion engine for instantiating ongoing dialogue as machine-readable text, if the dialogue is in voice media, a context analysis engine for determining facts from the text, a rules engine for asserting rules based on fact input, and a presentation engine for presenting information to the agent to guide the agent in the dialogue. The context analysis engine passes determined facts to the rules engine, which selects and asserts to the presentation engine rules based on the facts, and the presentation engine provides periodically updated guidance to the agent based on the rules asserted.
Abstract:
A method is provided for creating a portable history data record for a customer by integrating Web cookie data and telephone history data. The method includes the acts (a) retrieving and interpreting the Web cookie data, (b) retrieving and interpreting the telephone history data, (c) combining the data sets into a single data record eliminating redundant data, (d) formatting the data record for human or for machine interpretation, and (e) presenting the formatted data record to a point of service during or just ahead of an associated interaction event.
Abstract:
A trust network has at least one transmission medium supporting transmission of data, wherein data transmitted is in at least some instances transmitted in discrete portions, two or more nodes terminating discrete legs in the transmission medium, and trust software executing from a machine-readable medium by a processor on one or more of the two or more nodes. The one or more nodes executing trust software apply trust logic to transmission of the discrete data portions.
Abstract:
A recording system has an interface enabled to monitor interaction between an agent of an enterprise and a second person, recording apparatus enabled to record the interaction and to store the recording in a data repository, and software stored in and executing from a machine-readable medium, the software providing functions for controlling the recording apparatus. The software responds to inputs from the second person to control the recording apparatus.
Abstract:

Individual ones of the rule sets include one or more contact constraints set by the customer associated with the rule set.
Abstract:
An asset tracking and reporting system has a network-connected computerized appliance having at least one processor and one or more data repositories, at least one of the data repositories being non-transitory and coded instructions executing on the at least one processor from the at least one non-transitory data repository. The coded instructions causing the system to register individuals or enterprises as users assuming one or more roles, enable users to enter and edit information through interactive interfaces provided, the information regarding individual assets in defined categories, the assets owned by the user, track user activities related to user's assets, connect users to resources to determine value for the individual assets, and to aggregate and report asset valuation according to user identity.
