Abstract
An algorithm system and method is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes selecting an algorithm to calculate a demand factor for each job in a job list requiring a demand factor calculation, calculating the demand factor using the selected algorithm, and assigning the calculated demand factors to the corresponding jobs in the job list. The calculating demand factor using the selected algorithm includes utilizing data associated with a job in the job list to calculate the demand factor using the selected algorithm. For example, the data includes aging data of the jobs, job status data, and client priority data of the job.
