Application Identification-Based Content Registration System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional information processing systems fail to deliver content, such as news, that is relevant to the applications being used on user terminals, requiring users to separately register applications and manage content, which is inconvenient and prone to errors.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system where a server and terminal communicate to automatically register content corresponding to started applications, allowing identification information to be transmitted and specifying information to be used for selecting and managing content, enabling seamless and user-friendly content provision without additional registration steps.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If automatic content registration based on application start is implemented, then user convenience is improved and registration trouble is reduced, but system complexity increases due to automatic identification and matching mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically performs content registration without requiring user intervention. When an application starts, the terminal automatically transmits its identification information to the server, which then automatically selects and registers corresponding content based on pre-stored specifying information, eliminating the need for users to manually register applications or manage content subscriptions
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces identification information as an intermediary element that bridges the application and content registration processes. The terminal's identification information serves as a mediator that the server uses to automatically match and register appropriate content, simplifying the user experience while managing system complexity through structured data association
2Reliability
If content registration is performed every time an application starts, then content relevance is improved, but communication frequency and system load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The server pre-stores specifying information that associates application identification information with corresponding content before the actual registration process. This preliminary preparation allows the system to quickly and efficiently perform content registration without requiring complex real-time analysis, maintaining high content relevance while improving system efficiency through pre-computed associations
3Adaptability or versatility
If manual content registration is required, then user control over content is improved, but user convenience deteriorates due to additional registration steps
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where the terminal transmits its identification information to the server in response to application start events. The server then provides feedback by automatically selecting and registering appropriate content based on the received identification information, creating a closed-loop system that maintains user control while eliminating manual registration steps

AI summary
An example of an information processing system includes an information processing terminal and a server configured to communicate with the information processing terminal. The information processing terminal starts an application in accordance with an instruction of a user and transmits identification information of the started application to the server. The server stores specifying information for specifying, from among a plurality of contents, a content or a group of contents as a target to be transmitted to the information processing terminal, in association with identification information of an application. The server receives identification information from the information processing terminal and selects, from the stored specifying information, specifying information associated with the identification information received from the information processing terminal. The information processing system registers a content or a group of contents specified by the selected specifying information, as a target to be transmitted to the information processing terminal.
