Abstract
A dynamic resource allocation engine which can assist in automating activities and processes within an organization. More specifically, the concepts disclosed herein can reduce operational costs by eliminating unnecessary devices, processes, and/or personnel, while also providing an efficient mechanism for testing the effects of new resources on the entire system. This is done by first combining data associated with devices, processes, and personnel, in a common (normalized) data format. This combination represents a simulation of the business or enterprise associated with the data, and can be referred to as a 'resource allocation engine.' The resource allocation engine provides information about how resources are being used within the organization.
