Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a centralized system is used to manage subsystems and track service consumption, then billing and management can be centralized, but computational burdens on centralized servers increase and processing efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the centralized management system into distributed subsystems, each capable of independent operation. Each subsystem maintains its own state and can process transactions locally, eliminating the need for all computations to occur on centralized servers. This segmentation allows the system to maintain centralized management capabilities while distributing computational work to improve processing efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a new dimensional approach by implementing a blockchain-based distributed ledger that operates across multiple subsystems simultaneously. This adds a spatial dimension to the management architecture, allowing parallel processing across the network while maintaining consistency through the blockchain consensus mechanism.
2Adaptability or versatility
If subsystems are deployed across different systems with varying configurations, then versatility and adaptability improve, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal subsystem architecture where each subsystem is designed to perform multiple functions across different system contexts. The standardized interface and blockchain-based communication protocol allow the same subsystem to operate universally across various platforms and configurations, enhancing adaptability without proportionally increasing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes configurable parameters within the subsystem design that can be adjusted to match different system environments. By changing these parameters rather than redesigning entire subsystems, the system achieves high adaptability while maintaining a standardized base architecture that limits overall complexity.
3Productivity
If microcode is used to configure subsystems from blockchain blocks, then subsystem initialization and configuration efficiency improve, but security requirements and verification complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the blockchain network continuously verifies and validates microcode before execution. Each subsystem can request verification of microcode integrity, and the network provides feedback on validation results. This ensures security and reliability while maintaining efficient initialization through automated verification processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs security verification and validation of microcode in advance, before actual subsystem execution. The blockchain network pre- validates microcode packages and stores verification results, so that when subsystems need to initialize, they can quickly retrieve already-validated microcode without performing full security checks at execution time, thus maintaining both speed and security.
Data Source
AI summary
A method of initializing a subsystem by reading microcode from a block of a static blockchain associated to the subsystem, executing the microcode to configure the subsystem, and building event blocks associated with the subsystem using the block of the static blockchain as a genesis block of a live subsystem blockchain. The method comprises reading a block associated to a subsystem by an application executing on a processor of the subsystem, where the block associated to the subsystem is one of a plurality of blocks in a static blockchain, executing microcode of the block read by the application, based on executing the microcode, configuring the subsystem for operation, creating an event block by the application, where the event block stores information about an event generated by the subsystem operating based on the configuration, and attaching the event block to a live subsystem blockchain associated with the subsystem.
