Solution Overview

Problem

Existing resource sharing methods are limited to individual applications, platforms, or devices, reducing efficiency and relying on centralized platforms for resource propagation.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a resource sharing method using blockchain technology, where blockchain nodes share and determine resource information, enabling decentralized resource sharing among nodes, improving efficiency, security, and reliability.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If resources are displayed in individual applications or platforms, then resource ownership is clear and control is simple, but resource sharing efficiency is low and resource utilization is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource sharing efficiencyVSAvoidsystem structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges resource sharing across multiple applications and platforms into a unified blockchain-based system. Different resource types (content, computing power, storage, bandwidth) from various merchants are combined into a single shareable pool, enabling efficient cross-platform resource sharing while maintaining individual merchant control through blockchain smart contracts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Reliability

If resources are concentrated on a unified platform, then resource sharing becomes easier and user access is simplified, but the platform becomes a single point of failure and security risks increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem securityVSAvoidresource sharing operation
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the centralized platform into multiple independent blockchain nodes, each representing a merchant's resource pool. Resources are divided into standardized tokens that can be independently tracked and transferred. This segmentation eliminates the single point of failure while maintaining ease of operation through unified blockchain-based resource discovery and sharing mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

3Reliability

If a centralized platform is used for resource sharing, then resource propagation is simplified and user access is streamlined, but the platform's security and tamper-resistance are compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetamper-resistanceVSAvoidnetwork structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a blockchain network as an intermediary layer between resource owners and users. Smart contracts act as automated mediators that enforce sharing rules, track resource usage, and ensure secure transactions without requiring trust in any single participant. This intermediary blockchain layer provides tamper-resistance while simplifying the overall interaction model through standardized protocols.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Embodiments of the present specification disclose a resource sharing method, apparatus, and device, where the method includes: obtaining, by a first blockchain node, a resource from a second blockchain node; performing, by the first blockchain node, a sharing operation to share the resource with one or more user terminals; generating, by the first blockchain node, sharing information related to the sharing operation; and broadcasting, by the first blockchain node, the sharing information to a blockchain network associated with the first blockchain node and the second blockchain node.
