System and method for automatic task prioritization
First Claim
1. A system for automatic task prioritization, comprising:
- a decision engine configured to receive tasks and to determine a priority of each task;
at least one task queue configured to store said prioritized tasks in order of priority; and
a monitoring module configured to monitor tasks selected from said task queue by at least one agent and to forward said selected tasks and a priority code associated with each selected task as feedback to said decision engine such that said decision engine uses said feedback to update priority criteria, which include rules for prioritizing the tasks.

Abstract
A system and method for automatic task prioritization comprises one or more task queues, a monitoring module, and a decision engine. The decision engine receives tasks and assigns a priority code to each task. Each task is inserted into one of the task queues according to its priority code and the priority codes of other tasks which may be present in the task queues. Agents select tasks to perform from the task queue according to priority guidelines established by a system user. The monitoring module may monitor the order of the tasks selected by the agents and each task'"'"'s priority code. The monitoring module feeds this information back to the decision module. In one embodiment, the decision module is a learning system that updates stored data using feedback from the monitoring module to determine priority of each task.
