System, method, and program product for optimizing a research and grant portfolio

摘要

Method, system, and program product for managing research grants. This is done by capturing at least one grant description into a database. Next one or more of researcher capability, researcher availabilities, and research subject availabilities are entered into the database. The grant description is then text mined to identify matches between the grant descriptions and the data items. Then a gain is defined and determined for each such match. This gain is then tabulated.
