Incoming Query Distribution Using Parallel Processing
The distribution of incoming queries to a customer interaction center agent group is parallel processed amongst agents of that group to improve queue wait times. A threshold number of queries that may be processed by agent devices associated with the agent group at a given time are defined based on a number of agents of the agent group that are available at the given time. In response to determining that the number of queries is satisfies the threshold number of queries based on the number of agents that are available at a current time, a number of queries awaiting processing are distributed to one or more agent devices of the agent group. The threshold number of queries may be based on half of the number of agents that are available at the given time.

System and method for adding content to contact center interactions
A system and method are presented for the addition of content to contact center interactions. An interaction is routed to an agent in the contact center environment. The interaction is routed through one or more providers of embedded client applications. Providers may be a first party, a DSL provider, or a programmatic provider. The provider triggers a user interface which displays one or more specified embedded client applications to the agent and when the agent selects one of the applications, it is asynchronously loaded through an inline frame.

Managing outbound calling
In some implementations, a system may identify, based on an account status of an account, one or more phone numbers associated with the account. The system may determine a confidence score of each phone number, based on historical call data and one or more phone number attributes, a rank of the phone number(s) based on corresponding confidence scores, and a quality score for each phone number based on a relative comparison of confidence scores of phone numbers of at least a subset of a plurality of users. The system may determine a daily call schedule, which may include a total frequency to call the user, based on the account status, a phone number frequency to call each phone number, based on one or more conditions related to corresponding quality scores, and a call order in which to call each phone number, based on the rank of the phone number(s).

Systems and methods for routing callers to an agent in a contact center
Techniques for handling contacts and agents in a contact center system are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for handling contacts and agents in a contact center system including determining a first caller grade for a first call, determining a first agent grade for a first agent, and matching the first caller and the first agent based on a comparison of the first caller grade with the first agent grade.
Selective mapping of callers in a call center routing system
Techniques for handling contacts and agents in a contact center system are disclosed. In one particular embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for handling contacts and agents in a contact center system including associating an outcome of an interaction between a contact and an agent with an identification of a matching strategy used for matching the contact with the agent.
