Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If users manually search for information and understand next steps in a computing-based process, then they can complete the process, but the time required and user effort increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprocess completion speedVSAvoidtime for information retrieval
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary analysis of user data, historical patterns, and process requirements before the user needs information. By pre-processing and understanding user behavior patterns in advance, the system can generate predictive prompts that anticipate user needs, eliminating the time users would otherwise spend searching for information manually.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables itself to provide assistance by automatically analyzing user data and generating contextual prompts without requiring users to manually search for help. The artificial intelligence agent serves itself by learning from historical data and autonomously creating personalized guidance, freeing users from information retrieval tasks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Adaptability or versatility

If generic process guidance is provided to users, then general assistance is available, but personalized and effective assistance is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization capabilityVSAvoiduser effort in navigating process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by customizing process guidance specifically for each user based on their individual data, historical behavior, and preferences. Instead of uniform generic prompts, the artificial intelligence agent generates locally optimized prompts tailored to each user's context, making the assistance both adaptable and easy to understand for that specific user.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adapts the guidance provided to users based on real-time analysis of their behavior and historical data. The prompts evolve and change according to user needs, making the assistance both highly personalized and easy to follow, as the content adjusts to match each user's specific situation rather than using static generic instructions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Ease of operation

If an artificial intelligence agent analyzes user data and generates customized prompts, then personalized assistance is provided, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser guidance qualityVSAvoidsystem architecture complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system introduces an artificial intelligence agent as an intermediary layer between the user data and the prompt generation process. This intermediary automatically analyzes historical data, identifies patterns, and creates personalized guidance, thereby improving ease of operation while managing system complexity through automated processing rather than requiring complex manual systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces manual analysis and generic rule-based guidance with an artificial intelligence agent that uses machine learning and data analysis. This substitution of mechanical or manual processes with intelligent automation improves personalized assistance quality while the automated nature of the AI agent helps manage the complexity that would otherwise require extensive manual system design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

An intelligent workflow process is provided to facilitate generating electronic prompt(s) for a user of a computing system to provide customized assistance to the user in carrying out a computing-based process. Generating the prompt(s) includes identifying, by an artificial intelligence agent with reference to user data, the computing-based process initiated by the user, where the user data includes historical data relevant to the computing-based process. In addition, the generating includes determining, by the artificial intelligence agent using a machine learning model and the user data, one or more typical actions of the user relevant to the computing-based process, and producing, based on the one or more typical actions of the user relevant to the computing-based process, the electronic prompt(s) for the user. In addition, the electronic prompt(s) are provided, to the user's computing system to facilitate the customized assistance to the user in carrying out the computing-based process.
