Method and System of Scheduling, Optimizing and Dynamically Updating Appointment Slots in a Booking System

摘要

A computer-implemented method for a dynamic computer-based appointment slot booking comprises a plurality of steps wherein appointment slots (and their attributes) in a locked database are entangled via one or more virtual umbilical cords in a manner analogous to the formation of quantum systems, in such a way, the entangled appointment slots comprise a system carrying a character of “wholeness” and wherein the database so formed is unlocked (made available for new appointment selection and entry), said act of booking a new appointment i) creates consequences to the entangled appointment slots (and their attributes) ii) reflects the “wholeness” of the quantum system.

1. A method for dynamically scheduling and optimizing appointment slots for delivery/conveyance of a finite resource, said slots being stored in a database using a computing device, the computing device having a processor, a memory, and an entanglement application stored in the memory and executable by the processor, the method comprising:
a) locking the database for a period of reconciliation and entanglement; b) deleting expired appointment slots; c) refreshing existing appointment slots, existing appointment slots attributes and previously saved related information (“refreshed old information”); d) entering data relating to availability of the finite resource and at least one attribute of the finite resource over time period X (“new information”); e) creating virtual umbilical cords for new information and recreating virtual umbilical cords for refreshed old information; f) reconciling refreshed old information and new information via the virtual umbilical cords so formed, thereby triggering a quantum entanglement of refreshed old information (including existing appointment slots) and new information via said virtual umbilical cords (“entangled system over time period X”); g) unlocking the database, said database then being in a state of availability for new appointment entry over time period X; h) during time period X, receiving a new request for delivery of the finite resource wherein said request may comprise a plurality of preferences of possible dates and appointment windows; i) replying to the request with an offer of one or more available appointment slots that satisfy at least one of plurality of preferences of possible dates and appointment windows; and j) booking said appointment and connecting the appointment to a new appointment slot (“new appointment slot”), wherein said booking impacts and has consequences upon the entangled system over time X.
