Abstract
A system, for concurrent calculation of resource qualifications (e.g., skills, educational degree, etc) and availability (e.g., availability to work on a project) using text search. The method commences by initiating a flow for requesting resources, the resource request comprising a qualification requirement indication and a time period requirement indication. The method further comprises retrieving candidate resource documents in a manner so as to calculate an overall match score that is based not only on qualifications, but also on availability. The scoring uses a recoded candidate resource document that comprises qualification attributes as well as time period availability to form an overall match score. The recoding can be performed in an administrative flow (e.g., a batch process, and/or a periodically executed update process), and the administrative flow creates recoded candidate resource document that are suited for use with a text search engine capable of processing an extensible markup language document.
