Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If body scan data is centralized and made accessible for multiple applications, then the versatility and utility of the data increases, but data security and user privacy control become more difficult to maintain
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by obtaining user consent and authorization before accessing or sharing body scan data. The permission management module proactively secures user approval for specific data access scenarios, ensuring data security is established before versatility is enabled.
Solution Approach 2:
The permission management module acts as an intermediary between the data subject and various applications/services. It mediates data access by verifying permissions, controlling what data is shared, and with whom, thus maintaining security while enabling versatile utilization through authorized channels.
2Productivity
If multiple applications can access body scan data, then the productivity and business value increase, but the complexity of permission management increases
Solution Approach 1:
The permission management module is designed as a universal, multi-functional system that handles diverse permission scenarios (gift purchasing, fitness tracking, medical applications, etc.) through a unified interface and standardized processes, reducing perceived complexity while enabling high productivity across multiple applications.
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments permission management into distinct, manageable components: consent collection, permission storage, verification mechanisms, and revocation processes. This segmentation allows each component to be independently managed and maintained, reducing overall system complexity while supporting multiple high-value applications.
3Ease of operation
If body scan data is released to third parties, then the ease of operation for customized services improves, but user control over data becomes more restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The permission system is dynamic, allowing users to adjust their data control preferences at any time. Users can grant, modify, or revoke permissions for different applications and data types, ensuring user control remains adaptable while services maintain ease of operation through automated permission verification.
