SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY TRACKING AND STATE FORECASTING TAGGED ENTITIES

1 . A method for dynamically improving a progress of an entity through an operation, the entity having an electronic tagging device associated therewith, the method comprising:

sensing signals emitted by the tagging device, at predetermined instances or when triggered by external events, by a plurality of sensors located at predetermined sites with respect to the operation;

communicating the sensed signals and corresponding energy levels at which they were sensed by each of the plurality of sensors to a data processor;

processing the energy levels to track locations of the tagging device relatively to the predetermined sites of the sensors;

dynamically updating a path of the tagging device and the associated entity based on the tracked locations with respect to at least a portion of the operation;

triggering simultaneously a forecasting simulation based on the dynamically updated path;

determining whether the forecasting simulation encounters a problem with respect to the simulated progress of the entity through the operation;

identifying a modification of a parameter related to the entity or the operation that substantially mitigates the problem; and

incorporating dynamically the modification of the parameter to improve the progress of the entity through the operation.
