Availability based resource scheduling

Abstract

Embodiments are directed to managing resources over a network. One or more resources that are unassigned. Selection models may be generated based on a one or more open appointments or one or more characteristics of one or more clients. The selection models may be employed to determine each client that is qualified to accept one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments. The one or more invitations to accept the one or more open appointments may be provided to the one or more qualified clients based on one or more notification models that define one or more communication modes to communicate the one or more invitations with the one or more candidate clients over a period of time. An open appointment may be reserved based on a qualified client accepting an invitation to the open appointment.

1 . A method for managing resources over a network using one or more network computers that include one or more processors that perform actions, comprising:
 generating one or more selection models for one or more open appointments based on one or more unassigned resources and one or more characteristics of one or more clients   determining a criteria for qualifying each of the one or more clients to receive one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments, wherein geo-location information for each qualified client is employed to select one or more of a time zone, spoken language, financial currency, or calendar format for inclusion in the one or more invitations;   employing the criteria and the one or more selection models to provide the one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments to each qualified client; and   reserving an open appointment based on a qualified client confirming an acceptance of an invitation to the open appointment.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein determining the criteria further comprises:
 including one or more of geographic location, password, personal identification number (PIN), a resource previously assigned to an open appointment accepted by the one or more clients, an organization currently associated with the one or more clients, or calendar availability information for the one or more clients or the one or more resources.

         5 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 in response to the qualified client confirming the acceptance of the invitation to the open appointment and before expiry of the period of time, closing the open appointment by assigning the one or more resources and the qualified client to the closed appointment.   
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 in response to expiry of the period of time and non-confirmation by the qualified client for the acceptance of the open appointment, performing further actions, including:
 non-reserving the open appointment for the qualified client; 
 employing the one or more selection models to determine one or more other qualified clients that are qualified to accept one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments; and 
 providing the one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments to the one or more other qualified clients based on the one or more notification models. 
   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein providing the one or more invitations, further comprises:
 employing one or more notification models that define one or more communication modes to communicate the one or more invitations with each qualified client.   
     
     
         8 . A system for managing resources over a network, comprising:
 a network computer, comprising:
 a memory that stores at least instructions; and 
 one or more processors that execute instructions that perform actions, including:
 generating one or more selection models for one or more open appointments based on one or more unassigned resources and one or more characteristics of one or more clients; 
 determining a criteria for qualifying each client to receive one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments, wherein geo-location information for each qualified client is employed to select one or more of a time zone, spoken language, financial currency, or calendar format for inclusion in the one or more invitations; 
 employing the criteria and the one or more selection models to provide the one or more invitations to the one or more open appointments to each qualified client; and 
 reserving an open appointment based on the qualified client confirming an acceptance of the invitation to the open appointment; and 
 
 a client computer, comprising:
 another memory that stores at least instructions; and 
 one or more processors that execute instructions that perform actions, including:
 enabling the qualified client to communicate confirmation of the acceptance of the invitation to the open appointment. 
 
 
   
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein determining the criteria further comprises:
 including one or more of geographic location, password, personal identification number (PIN), a resource previously assigned to an open appointment accepted by the one or more clients, an organization currently associated with the one or more clients, or calendar availability information for the one or more clients or the one or more resources.
