I have an interesting problem trying to represent complex schedule data in a database. As a guideline, I need to be able to represent the entirety of what the iCalendar -- ics -- format can represent, but in a database. I'm not actually implementing anything relating to ics, but it gives a good scope of the type of rules I need to be abl...
Assuming I have a list of shifts for an event (in the format start date/time, end date/time) - is there some sort of algorithm I could use to create a generalized summary of the schedule? It is quite common for most of the shifts to fall into some sort of common recurrence pattern (ie. Mondays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, Tuesdays from 10:00...

We have a backend VB based scheduling app which we would like to webify. A key function point is displaying multi-person schedule (with possible multi-events) for a selected day. A sample can be seen at http://flic.kr/p/8rT4aR In VB we've used a non-web custom control SchedOCX to deliver this functionality. Any recommendation for a...

I've written a Python app that reads a database of tasks, and schedule.enter()s those tasks at various intervals. Each task reschedules itself as it executes. I'd like to integrate this app with a WSGI framework, so that tasks can be added or deleted in response to HTTP requests. I assume I could use XML-RPC to communicate between the...

The problem is that I need the polled task to happen even when it is already executing. So far I have tried using a Timer/TimerTask combo with the scheduleAtFixedRate() method a...
