Analysis Device Priority Scheduling for Urgent Imaging
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In dynamic imaging systems, high urgency-required analysis results often face delayed availability due to concurrent requests from multiple imaging and display devices, leading to increased waiting times for urgent diagnoses.
Innovation Solution
An analysis device with a controller that prioritizes the processing order of received moving images and analysis processes based on preset degrees of priority for imaging devices and data attributes, ensuring that high urgency-required images are analyzed and displayed promptly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the analysis device processes multiple concurrent requests from multiple imaging devices, then the system can handle more imaging requests simultaneously, but the waiting time for high urgency-required analysis results increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic priority-based scheduling where the processing order of analysis requests is not fixed but adapts based on urgency levels. The controller dynamically adjusts the processing sequence by evaluating priority attributes of different imaging requests, ensuring that high-urgency cases (e.g., emergency trauma patients) are processed ahead of routine cases, thereby reducing waiting time for critical diagnoses while maintaining high system throughput
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter of processing order based on priority attributes. By introducing a priority parameter that can take different values (high, medium, low urgency), the system transforms a single FIFO queue into a multi-level priority queue, allowing differential treatment of requests and optimizing the balance between overall productivity and individual request response time
2Ease of operation
If the analysis device processes requests in the order received (FIFO), then the processing order is simple and predictable, but high urgency-required analysis results face delayed availability
Solution Approach 1:
The patent modifies the processing order parameter from a simple sequential sequence to a priority-based sequence. By adding a priority attribute parameter to each request and changing the sorting criterion from arrival time to priority level, the system maintains operational simplicity through automated priority-based scheduling while dramatically improving response time for urgent cases

AI summary
An analysis device includes a controller. The analysis device receives moving images sent from a plurality of imaging devices, analyzes the received moving images, and sends an analysis result of a moving image to, among a plurality of display devices, a display device which has made a request to display so that the display device displays the analysis result. The controller controls a processing order of reception processes and analysis processes on moving images sent from the imaging devices according to degrees of priority preset for the respective imaging devices.
