Abstract
A system and method for automating scheduling and coordination activities associated with the organizational responsibilities of hosting visitors (whether from the same company or an external organization). System leverages location technologies and other services to track the location of visitors, hosts, and other key participants related to the agenda items. The system performs the matching tracking information of visitor(s), participant(s), and the location of agenda event(s). The design of the described system rests on the assumption that visitors are a special type of person in an organization whose movements are actively tracked and managed through organizational policies and/or practices.
