In a resource-pooling system, predictions can be made as to when and how resources may be needed by particular processes in the system. Requests can be made preemptively to client systems to pre-allocate resources such that resources are ready to use when needed. Client systems can submit constraints on how particular resources may be used by the system. In order to efficiently evaluate these constraints, the system may be organized into a hierarchy of groups, subsystems, and processes, and the constraints may be formulated to match this hierarchy. When resources need to be allocated, constraints may be evaluated using an algorithm that traverses levels of the hierarchy to quickly identify pre-allocations that are available for a particular process based on its location in the system hierarchy.

Pre-allocating resources with hierarchy-based constraints

Disclosed are improved methods, systems, and computer program products to manage, access, and inquire into logistics data, such as warehouse data, inventory data, and license plate data, to create an integrated logistics data set for display on a mobile computer.

Method and system for implementing integrated logistics queries

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for viewing hierarchical data. One disclosed approach provides a method and system for viewing and navigating through hierarchical data while maintaining a hierarchical context that allows for the user to traverse up and down the hierarchy.
