Method and system for resource management and evaluation
First Claim
1. A method for resource tracking comprising:
- detecting, by a resource engine, a problem with an application;
creating, by the resource engine, a plurality of tasks in response to the detecting the problem with the application;
associating by the resource engine, a Radio Frequency (RF) transponder system with a resource and with the plurality of tasks; and
monitoring, by the resource engine, performance of the resource based on association of the transponder system with the resource and the plurality of tasks, wherein the monitoring includes;
determining by the resource engine, a resource skill level;
associating, by the resource engine, the resource skill level with the transponder system;
determining, by the resource engine, a task skill level associated with the plurality of tasks by combining an individual task skill level of each of the plurality of tasks;
assigning, by the resource engine, the plurality of tasks to the resource based on the resource skill level being at least equal to the task skill level associated with the plurality of tasks;
receiving, by the resource engine, an indication from the transponder system that all tasks in the plurality of tasks are complete; and
evaluating, by the resource engine, performance of the resource in response to receiving the indication from the transponder system.

Abstract
A system and method for using RFID technology to track resource performance and task completion is disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, a system for facilitating a transaction comprising a transponder, an RF reader, a transaction completion system, and a resource engine. In another exemplary embodiment, the transponder system is configured to provide an account number in ISO/IEC 7816 magnetic stripe Track1/Track 2 format. In accordance with another aspect the transponder may transmit to the RFID reader information identifying the resource'"'"'s performance tracking account to which the transponder is associated. The RFID reader may receive and forward the information to facilitate performance tracking.

11. A computer system comprising:
-
a processor; and a non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor and having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the computer system to perform the following; detect a problem with an application; create a plurality of tasks in response to the detecting the problem with the application; associate a Radio Frequency (RF) transponder system with a resource and with the plurality of tasks; and monitor performance of the resource based on association of the transponder system with the resource and the plurality of tasks, wherein the instructions, upon execution by the processor, cause the computer system to further perform the following as part of monitoring the performance of the resource; determine a resource skill level; associate the resource skill level with the transponder system; determine a task skill level associated with the plurality of tasks by combining an individual task skill level of each of the plurality of tasks; assign the plurality of tasks to the resource based on the resource skill level being at least equal to the task skill level associated with the plurality of tasks; receive an indication from the transponder system that all tasks in the plurality of tasks are complete; and evaluate performance of the resource in response to receiving the indication from the transponder system. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A non-transitory computer-readable data storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a computer-based system, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
-
detecting, by the computer-based system, a problem with an application; creating, by the computer-based system, a plurality of tasks in response to the detecting the problem with the application; associating, by the computer-based system, a Radio Frequency (RF) transponder system with a resource and with the plurality of tasks; and monitoring, by the computer-based system, performance of the resource based on association of the transponder system with the resource and the plurality of tasks, wherein the monitoring includes; determining, by the computer-based system, a resource skill level; associating, by the computer-based system, the resource skill level with the transponder system; determining, by the computer-based system, a task skill level associated with the plurality of tasks by combining an individual task skill level of each of the plurality of tasks; assigning, by the computer-based system, the plurality of tasks to the resource based on the resource skill level being at least equal to the task skill level associated with the plurality of tasks; receiving, by the computer-based system, an indication from the transponder system that all tasks in the plurality of tasks are complete; and evaluating, by the computer-based system, performance of the resource in response to receiving the indication from the transponder system. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
