| 1. A method executed by a computerized server operating within a communication center enhancing resource management for routing
events, comprising steps of:
(a) retrieving information concerning events to be routed from a routing engine, the information including at least nature
and quantity of resources required by the events;
(b) retrieving information concerning instant state of the resources potentially available to service the events;
(c) processing the retrieved information from steps (a) and (b) by the server;
(d) based on the processing, recommending allocation of the resources by the server to best serve upcoming events to be routed;
and
(e) repeating steps (a) through (d) periodically to allocate, re-allocate and manage the resources relative to the needs of
events in near real time.
