Automated Action Set System for Network Community Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current community management in networks relies heavily on manual actions and lacks automation, making it inefficient for managing and executing actions within communities, especially in dynamic environments where triggers need to initiate automated responses.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for managing community actions through identifying triggers and spawning automated action sets, which include actions by member devices or remote devices communicatively coupled to them, allowing for automated execution in response to these triggers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual actions are used for community management, then system complexity is reduced, but productivity and responsiveness deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-configures action sets with multiple automated actions that are prepared in advance and stored for later execution. When a trigger condition is met, the pre-configured action set is automatically executed without requiring real-time manual configuration, thereby improving productivity while managing complexity through advance preparation.
Solution Approach 2:
An automated action set mechanism serves as an intermediary between trigger conditions and execution actions. This intermediary layer processes trigger events and automatically executes appropriate actions without requiring direct manual intervention, thus improving community management efficiency while the system handles the complexity of automation logic.
2Speed
If automated action sets are implemented, then responsiveness to triggers is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
Action sets are configured and prepared in advance with all necessary actions and conditions defined beforehand. This preliminary configuration enables immediate automated response when triggers occur, achieving high responsiveness while the complexity of automation logic is managed through pre-established rules and configurations.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple automated actions are included in action sets, then functionality and versatility are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides complex community management tasks into discrete, manageable actions that are organized into action sets. Each action represents a specific, independent operation that can be individually configured and executed. This segmentation allows the system to handle versatile community management scenarios through combinations of simple, well-defined actions, thereby improving adaptability while managing complexity through modular design.
Solution Approach 2:
The automated action set mechanism provides universal functionality that can handle multiple different community management scenarios through a single unified framework. The same action set infrastructure supports various types of triggers, actions, and community contexts, improving versatility while the system manages complexity through a standardized, multi-functional approach rather than requiring separate mechanisms for each scenario.

AI summary
Systems and methods herein spawn action sets for networked communities which are executed based on detected triggers. A method that spawns action sets can include selecting a community including member devices. The member devices are associated with a distributed job. The method can also include identifying a trigger related to the distributed job and spawning an automated action set related to the trigger. The automated action set includes at least one of automated action by the member devices or automated action by a remote device communicatively coupled to at least one of the member devices.
