Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a system and method for managing events and data that allows for the generation of messages in response to predetermined variables, such as destination, time, and user-defined variables. This allows for additional data transfers based on the variables associated with a message. The technical effect of this invention is a more efficient and flexible system for managing events and data.

Problems solved by technology

Nevertheless, because of the complexity of such systems, relatively simple rules must be applied.
However, such systems do not allow a message based on a destination, a time or user defined event parameters to be generated.
Indeed, there is no recognition in the art of the benefits of such additional functionality.

Embodiment Construction

[0014] In the description that follows, like parts are marked throughout the specification and drawings with the same reference numerals. The drawing figures might not be to scale and certain components can be shown in generalized or schematic form and identified by commercial designations in the interest of clarity and conciseness.

[0015]FIG. 1 is a diagram of system 100 for event and data management in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. System 100 allows event and data management to be performed, such as where data is generated or transferred concurrent with performance of events.

[0016] System 100 includes event and data management system 102, which further comprises event definition system 104, destination definition system 106, timing definition system 108, event parametric system 110, message definition system 112, and data modification system 114, each of which can be implemented in hardware, software, or a suitable combination of hardware and s...

Abstract

A method for transferring data based on an event function is provided. The method includes receiving an event function from an event initiator. The event function is distributed to one or more destinations associated with event performers. A response message is received as a function of destination and time. It is determined whether the time is less than or equal to a limit time, and it is further determined whether an event parameter is greater than or equal to an event constant if the time is less than or equal to the limit time. Data is transferred from a data origination system accessible by the event initiator to a data destination system accessible by the event performer if the event parameter is greater than or equal to the event constant and if the time is less than or equal to the limit time.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This Utility patent application makes reference and seeks priority to Provisional Application No. 60 / 758,861, filed on Jan. 13, 2006, which is hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention pertains to the field of event and data management, and more specifically to a system for event and data management that allows data associated with events to be managed. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Prior art systems for managing data and prior art systems for managing events are known in the art. Such systems allow parties to store and retrieve data and send data messages, or to associate data with events for review by other parties, respectively. Nevertheless, because of the complexity of such systems, relatively simple rules must be applied. [0004] For example, email and event scheduling systems are known that allow individuals to schedule events and to generate a message upon schedulin...
