Event and data management system and method

摘要

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.

1. An apparatus comprising:
a data processing system configured to receive an event function from an event initiator and a time constant associated with a class of devices; to receive a task description; to receive a quantitative task parameter; to distribute the event function, the task description and the quantitative task parameter to one or more destinations associated with an event performer; to receive a response message as a function of destination and time; to determine whether the time is less than or equal to a limit time; to determine whether the quantitative task parameter has been met by the event performer; and to transfer data 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, if the time is less than or equal to the limit time and if the quantitative task parameter has been met by the event performer by transferring funds from an account of the event initiator to an account of the event performer if a number of tasks have been completed within a predetermined time period.
