Asset Matching System with Competitive Disclosure Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for mediating the transfer or use of assets between companies do not adequately consider the competitive stakes and potential leakage of secret information, leading to enterprise and individual risks.
Innovation Solution
A matching system that includes an inviter device and a computing device to manage asset information and disclosure levels, ensuring that sensitive information is only shared with authorized applicants while maintaining the competitive integrity of the companies involved.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If asset information is disclosed to applicants for matching, then the matching efficiency is improved, but the risk of secret information leakage to competitors increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating the disclosure scope of asset information based on the relationship between the inviter and applicant. The system determines whether to disclose detailed asset information based on whether the applicant's company is a competitor of the inviter's company, thereby providing different levels of information quality to different applicants.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses the inviter's company as an intermediary that controls the disclosure of asset information. The inviter's company determines the scope of disclosure based on competitive relationship analysis, acting as a mediator between the need for information transparency and the need for secret information protection.
2Reliability
If the scope of asset information disclosure is restricted to prevent competitor access, then secret information protection is improved, but the matching effectiveness between inviter and appropriate applicant deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the disclosure scope adjustable and context-dependent. The system dynamically determines the disclosure scope based on the specific applicant being evaluated, allowing full disclosure to non-competitor applicants while restricting disclosure to competitor applicants, thereby optimizing both protection and matching effectiveness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of information disclosure scope based on the competitive relationship parameter. The system modifies the amount and detail of asset information disclosed according to whether the applicant's company competes with the inviter's company, optimizing the balance between protection and matching.
3Measurement precision
If detailed asset information is provided to all applicants, then the applicant's ability to evaluate the asset is improved, but the inviter's competitive stake is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by providing different levels of asset information detail to different applicants. Non-competitor applicants receive detailed asset information for accurate evaluation, while competitor applicants receive limited or no detailed information, thereby protecting the inviter's competitive stake while maintaining evaluation accuracy where appropriate.
Data Source
AI summary
A matching system, an inviter device, and a method to match an inviter and an applicant who applies for an invitation. A computing device that communicates with the inviter device and a first applicant device. The computing device is able to access a database, where the inviter device transmits asset information and disclosure information to the computing device, and can register the asset information and disclosure information transmitted from an inviter device into the database. The computing device can determine, asset information permitted to be disclosed to the first applicant among asset information registered in the database based on corresponding disclosure information. The computing device can provide the first applicant device with the asset information permitted to be disclosed to the first applicant.
