Solution Overview

Problem

Existing technologies face challenges in efficiently processing task logs, particularly in optimizing memory resource configuration for network nodes in distributed computing environments and detecting confidential information within these logs, while also addressing anomalies in blockchain transactions.

Innovation Solution

The system determines an optimal memory resource configuration for network nodes by analyzing historical task execution data, detects and obfuscates confidential information in task logs using machine learning algorithms, and updates a blockchain ledger based on detected anomalies in transactions.

1Productivity

If default memory resource configuration is used for network nodes, then device complexity is reduced, but memory resource utilization efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvememory resource utilizationVSAvoidmemory resource configuration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically analyzes historical task execution data and determines optimal memory resource configurations for network nodes without manual intervention. The processor autonomously evaluates task logs, identifies memory usage patterns, and configures memory resources accordingly, enabling the system to self-optimize its performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts memory resource allocation parameters based on historical task execution data. By analyzing actual memory consumption patterns from task logs, the system modifies memory configuration parameters (such as heap size, buffer allocation, and cache settings) to optimize performance for specific workloads.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If task logs are processed to identify confidential information, then information security is improved, but processing time and computational resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidtask log processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts and isolates confidential information from task logs using machine learning algorithms. By identifying and separating sensitive data elements (such as personal identifiable information, credentials, and proprietary data), the system can process and redact these sections without reprocessing the entire log file, thereby reducing computational overhead.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary analysis of task logs to identify and flag potentially confidential information before full processing occurs. Machine learning models pre-classify log entries based on their content characteristics, allowing the system to apply enhanced security processing only to high-risk sections rather than processing all logs uniformly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Reliability

If blockchain transactions are monitored for anomalies, then transaction integrity is improved, but system complexity and processing overhead increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransaction integrityVSAvoidanomaly detection system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system continuously monitors blockchain transactions and compares them against established patterns and historical data to detect anomalies. When suspicious activity is detected, the system provides feedback by flagging transactions for further investigation or by automatically adjusting monitoring parameters, creating a adaptive detection mechanism that reduces false positives.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The anomaly detection system is segmented into modular components that analyze different aspects of transactions independently. The system divides monitoring tasks into separate functions such as transaction validation, pattern recognition, risk assessment, and alert generation, allowing each component to be optimized and maintained separately while working together to provide comprehensive monitoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A system access a blockchain network and conducts a blockchain transaction on a task log in the blockchain network. The system stores the blockchain transaction in a blockchain ledger. The system determines whether the blockchain transaction is associated with an anomaly. The anomaly indicates that the result of the blockchain transaction is unexpected. If it is determined that the blockchain transaction is associated with an anomaly, the blockchain transaction is rejected and removed from the blockchain ledger. Otherwise, the blockchain ledger is updated to indicate that the blockchain transaction is not associated with an anomaly.
