Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If conventional computational systems (ALUs, FPUs, ASICs) are used to perform complex calculations, then calculation speed may be maintained, but calculation accuracy deteriorates due to the need for mathematical shortcuts and approximations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments complex mathematical functions into multiple nomographic grid layers, where each layer represents a specific function or transformation. This segmentation allows the system to maintain high accuracy by breaking down complex calculations into manageable steps while preserving computational efficiency through the structured organization of these layers.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a new dimensional approach by stacking nomographic grid layers in a multi-layer architecture. This dimensional transformation from traditional single-layer computation to multi-layer nomographic computation enables the system to achieve both high accuracy and efficiency by distributing computational tasks across multiple layers.
2Productivity
If mathematical shortcuts and approximations are used to improve calculation efficiency, then calculation speed improves, but calculation accuracy deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates precise copies of mathematical relationships through nomographic grid layers, where each layer accurately represents a specific mathematical function. This copying approach eliminates the need for approximations by directly encoding exact mathematical relationships into the grid structure, maintaining both accuracy and efficiency.
3Measurement precision
If conventional systems perform complex calculations for extended periods, then calculation accuracy may be maintained, but hardware temperature increases causing overheating
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by pre-computing and storing nomographic grid layers that encode mathematical relationships. This allows the system to execute complex calculations by simply traversing and combining pre-prepared layers rather than performing intensive real-time computations, significantly reducing processing time and heat generation while maintaining accuracy.
4Adaptability or versatility
If conventional computational architectures are used, then device complexity remains manageable, but adaptability to different mathematical functions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements universality by designing a multi-layer nomographic grid architecture that can represent and compute various mathematical functions using the same underlying structure. Different functions are encoded in different layers or combinations of layers, allowing a single device to handle diverse mathematical operations without requiring function-specific hardware, thus improving adaptability while managing complexity.
