Abstract From the Canadian patent

A resource handling system (120) has an intelligent software agent-based layer which provides a quasi-centralised control. The system has an interface to a user community and receives resource requests (115). There are multiple agents which negotiate to provide a response. The response can be substantially in real-time, rather than via a planning and scheduling capability while there , is also management of over- and under-bidding by the agents.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 1, 1998. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended October 1, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 1, 2020.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
