Provided is a workflow engine for managing data. More specifically, the workflow engine includes a receiving subsystem that is operable to receive data. An environment evaluating subsystem is also provided and is operable to evaluate an environment and determine at least one environmental parameter. A data evaluating system is in communication with the receiving subsystem and the environment evaluating subsystem. The data evaluating system is operable to determine at least one data parameter from the received data and to receive the environmental parameter. The data evaluating system will evaluate the data parameter and environment parameter and select at least one appropriate workflow rule for use in establishing a workflow job operation for execution by a job operation subsystem. An associated method of use is also provided.

Provided is a method for scheduling activities. The method includes partitioning tasks provided for scheduling. The partitioning is accomplished by receiving at least one task including at least one data type. The data type is reviewed to determine at least one scheduling criteria and the task is routed to a queue based on the determined scheduling criteria. Each queue also has at least one queue characteristic. The method also includes scheduling the partitioned tasks. The scheduling is accomplished by retrieving the at least one task from the queue in response to a trigger. The retrieved task is routed to at least one scheduler. In a first instance the routing is based on the queue characteristic. In a second instance the routing is based on at least one scheduler characteristic. A scheduling system for performing this method is also provided.

Provided is a problem solving system. More specifically, the problem solving system provides an interface operable to receive user supplied input data, the input data having at least one user defined characteristic. The system provides an algorithm pool having a plurality of pre-defined algorithms, each algorithm having at least one associated algorithm characteristic. The system also provides a data source pool having at least one data source, each data source having at least one data characteristic. An algorithm selector is in communication with the interface, algorithm pool and data source pool. The algorithm selector operable to; receive the input data and review the at least one user defined characteristic; select at least one algorithm from the algorithm pool based on the at least one user defined characteristic and selected algorithm's algorithm characteristic; select at least one data source from the data source pool based on the at least one user defined characteristic indicating a need for additional data and the selected data source's data characteristic; and bundle the input data, the selected algorithm and data source as a job operation for execution by a job operation subsystem to obtain a result, and return the result to a designated party. An associated method of solving a problem with such a system is also provided.

Provided is a generic framework for resource modeling to assist in scheduling tasks. More specifically the model provides a structure and method for receiving a task having at least one resource requirement. Upon receipt of such a task, a set of compliant resources are retrieved. A graph is generated to indicate one or more resource paths, each path running through a subset of the compliant resources. Each resource is represented as a node on the graph, and each resource has at least one characteristic. A characteristic common to all nodes on each path is then selected and plotted upon a continuum. Each path is then evaluated to determine path viability. Path viability is indicated by a common intersection upon the continuum of the selected characteristic for all nodes along the path.

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of substituted alkanesulfonates by the reaction of an aqueous metal substituted 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate with a nucleophile. 2-Alkylaminoalkanesulfonate is formed when the nucleophile is an amine. The invention also relates to the optimization of reaction conditions to produce an optimum yield.

In an embodiment of the invention, an apparatus and method for detecting resource consumption and preventing workload starvation, are provided. The apparatus and method perform the acts including: receiving a query; determining if the query will be classified as a resource intense query, based on a number of passes by a cache call over a data blocks set during a time window, where the cache call is associated with the query; and if the query is classified as a resource intense query, then responding to prevent workload starvation
