Solution Overview

Problem

Existing identifier coding systems fail to correctly describe and centrally manage novel multimedia information forms, such as audio multimedia reading, which combines different content and carrier expression forms, leading to inadequate association and management of combined multimedia information.

Innovation Solution

A method for assigning and parsing unique association relationship identifiers to objects with different expression forms, using a combination of pre-code and post-code, to establish a global unique identifier that represents the association relationship among various expression forms with the same subject content, enabling centralized management and demonstration of multimedia information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If existing identifier coding systems (ISBN, ISSN, ISRC, ISTC, ISWC, DOI) are used to manage multimedia information, then each specific content or carrier form can be identified, but the association relationship among different expression forms with the same subject content cannot be correctly described or centrally managed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecapability to describe association relationship among different expression formsVSAvoidloss of association information between multimedia objects
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple existing identifier systems into a unified association relationship unique identifier. This identifier integrates the ability to represent different expression forms (content, carrier, and their associations) into a single coding structure, enabling centralized management of multimedia information associations that previously required multiple separate identifier systems

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The association relationship unique identifier is designed with multi-functionality to handle various types of multimedia objects and their relationships. It can identify content expression forms, carrier forms, and their associations simultaneously, making it a universal identifier applicable to diverse multimedia scenarios including audio-visual readings, e-books, and traditional publications

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Measurement precision

If multiple separate identifier systems are used for different content and carrier forms, then specific identification can be achieved, but the system complexity increases and centralized management becomes difficult

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprecision of identifier assignmentVSAvoidcomplexity of identifier management system
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple separate identifier systems into a single association relationship unique identifier structure. This unified identifier maintains the precision needed for specific identification while eliminating the complexity of managing multiple separate identifier systems, enabling centralized management of multimedia information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The identifier system achieves universality by designing a single identifier structure that can handle various types of multimedia objects and their relationships. This multi-functional identifier reduces system complexity by replacing multiple specialized identifier systems with one general-purpose system that maintains precise identification capabilities

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

An identifier assigning method, an identifier parsing method, and a multimedia reading are provided. The identifier assigning method includes: obtaining association information between at least two objects with different expression forms (101), where the at least two objects with different expression forms have the same subject content; assigning association relationship unique identifiers to the at least two objects with different expression forms according to the association information (102), where the association relationship unique identifier is used to show a unique association relationship among different expression forms with the same subject content, the unique association refers to a unique identifier of an association relationship among various expression forms with different subject content, and the association relationship unique identifiers in each group are globally unique. The method realize a synchronized function demonstration of combined multimedia information, and manage combined multimedia content using the identifier.
