Staff Scheduling for Inbound Call and Customer Contact Centers
30 AI MAGAZINE ■ The staff scheduling problem is a critical problem in the call center (or, more generally, customer contact center) industry. This article describes DIRECTOR, a staff scheduling system for contact centers. DIRECTOR is a constraint-based system that uses AI search techniques to generate schedules that satisfy and optimize a wide range of constraints and service-quality metrics. ...
متن کاملAgent-based approach for cooperative scheduling
This paper studies the multi-factory production (MFP) network scheduling problem where a number of different individual factories join together to form a MFP network, in which these factories can operate more economically than operating individually. However, in such network which known as virtual production network with self-interested factories with transportation times, each individual facto...
متن کاملKnowledge Processing in Contact Centers using a Multi-Agent Architecture
The explosion of multimedia data, the continuous growth in computing power, and advances in machine learning and speech and natural language processing are making it possible to create a new breed of virtual intelligent agents capable of performing sophisticated and complex tasks that are radically transforming contact centers. These virtual agents are enabling ubiquitous and personalized acces...
متن کاملProfit - oriented shift scheduling of inbound contact centers with skills
This paper presents a profit-oriented shift scheduling approach for inbound contact centers. The focus is on systems in which multiple agent classes with different qualifications serve multiple customer classes with different needs. We assume that customers are impatient, abandon if they have to wait, and that they may retry. A discrete-time modeling approach is used to capture the dynamics of ...
متن کاملConsiderations for fairness in multi-agent systems
Typically, multi-agent systems are designed assuming perfectly rational, self-interested agents, according to the principles of classical game theory. However, research in the field of behavioral economics shows that humans are not purely self-interested; they strongly care about whether their rewards are fair. Therefore, multi-agent systems that fail to take fairness into account, may not be s...
