A computer-implemented method for pairing a new document to a document from a plurality of documents. Embodiments include, for each of the new document and the plurality of documents, generating a vector of terms of interest uniquely associated with a document of the new document and the plurality of documents. For each term of interest, an associated element value of the vector is assigned as zero if the term of interest does not occur in the document and one otherwise. The method also includes, for each document from the plurality of documents, determining a similarity between the vectors. The method also includes selecting a document from the plurality of documents as related to the new document if the similarity between the vector for the new document and the vector for the document from the plurality of documents is greater than or equal to a threshold value.

Embodiments relate to multi-dimensional surface-based bid matching. An aspect includes receiving a bid from a first user, the bid comprising a plurality of ranges, wherein each range of the plurality of ranges corresponds to a respective dimension of a plurality of dimensions. Another aspect includes determining a first bid surface in the plurality of dimensions based on the plurality of ranges of the bid of the first user. Another aspect includes modifying the first bid surface based on a match to the bid of the first user, the match comprising a point on a second bid surface corresponding to a bid from a second user. Another aspect includes wherein, if the first user comprises a work requester, the second user comprises a work producer, and if the first user comprises a work producer, the second user comprises a work requester.

Disclosed are methods and systems for identifying and visualizing the patterns of work transfers for service delivery using financial data. Within a service firm, work is often transferred from one delivery center to another, which results in additional costs and delays in service delivery. To control unnecessary work transfers, sustained patterns of work transfer are identified so that steps can be taken to limit their occurrence. The disclosed methods and systems analyze the relations among the costs transferred from one location to another.
