    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for scheduling processing of an order for goods at a provider location obtains an arrival estimate for when a user associated with the order is expected to arrive at the provider location and uses the arrival estimate to schedule processing of the order. Processing may be scheduled so that completion of order processing is expected to substantially coincide with arrival of the user at the provider location. The method may also obtain an order completion estimate for when processing of the order is expected to be completed and use both the arrival estimate and the order completion estimate to schedule processing of the order. The method may update one or both of the arrival estimate and the order completion estimate. The method may be executed by a networked mobile wireless telecommunication computing device of the user, or by a data processing system associated with the provider.

    Abstract: A method for fulfilling a plurality of orders for goods at a provider location comprises obtaining an arrival sequence estimate for each of a plurality of users indicating the sequence in which the users are expected to arrive, and organizing completed orders according to the arrival sequence estimate. The arrival sequence estimate may be obtained by ordering users according to their respective radial distances from a target, and may also be used to schedule processing of the orders. Alternatively, arrival estimates for when each of the users is expected to arrive may be used to schedule processing of the orders. A dynamic arrival estimate may be obtained based on an expected travel path toward the destination during a first trip portion comprising travel within a constrained travel path network, and based on radial distance from the destination during a second trip portion subsequent to the first trip portion.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for processing of an order for goods received at an order processing system from a location-triggered communication through a networked mobile wireless telecommunication computing device. Responsive to the location-triggered communication, a signal is transmitted to commence processing the order for goods. If the mobile wireless telecommunication computing device requests, an item list of available items and corresponding processing times for each request could also be transmitted. The item list may form part of an application program installable on the mobile wireless telecommunication computing device. The location-triggered communication may include payment information. The method may also process payment information and transmit an order receipt to the mobile wireless telecommunication computing device.
