Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing cloud systems require users to input multiple setting values individually to change the order of classification items, leading to a cumbersome operation when displaying aggregated results.

Innovation Solution

A cloud system that allows users to set multiple setting values based on a predetermined operation on an aggregation screen, enabling easy reordering of classification items through drag-and-drop functionality, and automatically updates the aggregated results accordingly.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If users input individual setting values again to interchange order positions, then the order of setting values can be changed, but the user operation load increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveease of changing order positionsVSAvoidtime for reinputting setting values

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system stores the previously input setting values and their order positions in advance. When the user wants to interchange order positions, the system retrieves these stored values and allows reordering without requiring reinput, thus saving time and reducing operation load.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates a copy of the previously input setting values and displays them on the screen for reordering. Instead of requiring users to reinput the same values, the system copies the existing data and allows users to simply change the order of these copies, significantly reducing the time and effort required.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple input operations are performed to interchange setting values, then the order positions can be adjusted, but the operation complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveflexibility in ordering setting valuesVSAvoidcomplexity of interchange operations

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system combines multiple input operations into a single unified display and ordering operation. Instead of requiring separate input operations for each setting value interchange, the system merges all setting values into a single display area where users can perform drag-and-drop operations to reorder them, simplifying the overall operation process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary display interface that shows all setting values and their order positions. This intermediary interface acts as a mediator between the user's ordering intent and the system's data structure, allowing users to simply drag and drop items in the display without directly manipulating the underlying data structure, thus reducing operation complexity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Reliability

If the system displays aggregated results with multiple setting values, then comprehensive data aggregation is achieved, but the user operation load increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveaccuracy of aggregated resultsVSAvoidease of managing multiple setting values

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically manages the display and ordering of multiple setting values without requiring complex user intervention. The system self-updates the aggregated results display when the user changes the order of setting values through simple drag-and-drop operations, reducing the operational burden on users while maintaining accurate data aggregation.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Provided is a cloud system which allows aggregation of data in a cloud service. At least one processor sets a plurality of setting values relating to the aggregation based on a predetermined setting operation performed on an aggregation screen relating to the aggregation. The at least one processor displays, on the aggregation screen, aggregated results corresponding to the plurality of setting values and an order relating to the plurality of setting values. The at least one processor changes the order based on a predetermined change operation performed on the aggregation screen. When the order is changed, the at least one processor updates the aggregation screen so that the aggregated results corresponding to the changed order are displayed.
