Abstract
Managing time-dependent electronic files. A set of time-dependent files is identified. A time period for processing for each file resulting in a set of time periods is identified. A minimum set of time instances that gives one time instance in each time period in the set of time periods is calculated. Batching for each time instance of the minimum set of time instances, a sub-set of files to be processed at the time instance.
