Android Broadcast Queue Parallel Processing Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing broadcast sending process in Android systems is inefficient, leading to high resource consumption and poor system stability due to sequential processing of broadcast messages, where a next message can only be sent after the previous one is completely processed.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that determine whether the sending process of a current broadcast message is the same as an already sent message, allowing for parallel processing by sending the current message while the previous message is being processed, and managing the broadcast queue to optimize message delivery and reduce resource consumption.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If sequential processing of broadcast messages is used, then system stability is maintained, but broadcast processing efficiency is low and resource consumption is high
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the broadcast message processing by dividing it into different sending processes (first sending process and second sending process). This allows the broadcast queue to be processed in parallel segments rather than sequentially, improving processing efficiency while maintaining system stability through structured segmentation of the processing workflow.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-judging whether the current broadcast message belongs to the first or second sending process before actual processing. This pre-categorization enables parallel processing paths to be established in advance, reducing waiting time and improving overall broadcast processing efficiency without compromising system stability.
2Productivity
If sequential processing of broadcast messages is used, then message order is maintained, but system resource consumption is high
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting broadcast messages into two distinct sending processes based on pre-judgment criteria, the system can process different segments in parallel. This reduces the total processing time and resource consumption compared to sequential processing, while still maintaining message order within each segment through structured handling.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces dynamic processing by adaptively routing broadcast messages to different sending processes based on their characteristics. This dynamic segmentation allows the system to optimize resource allocation and processing efficiency by matching message types with appropriate processing paths, reducing overall system resource consumption.
3Productivity
If parallel processing of broadcast messages is implemented, then processing efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent manages system complexity by clearly segmenting the broadcast processing into two distinct sending processes with well-defined boundaries and routing criteria. This structured segmentation makes the parallel processing system easier to understand, implement, and maintain compared to more complex parallel processing architectures, balancing efficiency improvement with manageable system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
By performing pre-judgment to categorize broadcast messages into first or second sending processes before processing begins, the patent simplifies the parallel processing logic. This preliminary classification reduces the complexity of real-time decision-making during processing and makes the system architecture more straightforward and easier to manage.
4Loss of time
If parallel processing of broadcast messages is implemented, then processing time is reduced, but system stability may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent maintains system stability in parallel processing by clearly defining two separate sending processes with distinct responsibilities and routing criteria. This structured segmentation ensures that each process handles specific message types in a controlled manner, preventing chaos and maintaining reliability while achieving faster processing through parallel execution.
Solution Approach 2:
By performing pre-judgment to determine which sending process should handle each broadcast message before processing begins, the patent ensures that messages are routed to the appropriate parallel process in advance. This preliminary routing maintains system stability by preventing conflicts and ensuring orderly processing, while still enabling parallel execution to reduce overall processing time.
