Book Information Display Method Reducing Navigation Costs
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The current e-book reading experience on terminal devices is cumbersome and time-consuming, as users need to navigate back to a superior interface to select new books after viewing details, affecting reading efficiency and convenience.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that display a first book recommendation stream, allowing users to acquire and view a second book recommendation stream corresponding to a selected target book, with introduction information displayed alongside, enabling seamless switching between book details without re-selecting from the superior interface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If users navigate back to the superior interface to select new books after viewing details, then book selection flexibility is maintained, but reading efficiency and user convenience deteriorate due to cumbersome operations and time consumption
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the book recommendation stream with the book details page by displaying a second book recommendation stream (related books) directly on the same page where the first target book details are shown. This integration allows users to browse and select related books without navigating back to the superior interface, thereby improving reading efficiency and user convenience while maintaining book selection flexibility.
2Loss of time
If the second book recommendation stream is displayed on the same page as book details, then navigation steps are reduced, but page layout complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the display page into distinct functional areas: a first area for displaying the second book recommendation stream (related books) and a second area for displaying introduction information of the selected book. This segmentation organizes the layout to accommodate multiple information streams without creating visual chaos, effectively managing page layout complexity while reducing the time needed to select books.
3Adaptability or versatility
If introduction information is displayed alongside book recommendations, then user decision-making is improved, but information density and cognitive load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic display mechanism where the introduction information of the book is displayed in the second area only after the user selects a book from the second book recommendation stream in the first area. This dynamic approach allows the interface to adapt to user actions, providing information on-demand rather than overwhelming the user with all information simultaneously, thus improving book selection flexibility while managing information processing load.

AI summary
Provided by the present disclosure are a book information display method and apparatus, a computer device, and a readable storage medium. Once a user selects a first target book in a first book recommendation stream, a second book recommendation stream corresponding to a first target book and introduction information of a second book are displayed, and an inner book list stream i.e. the second book recommendation stream can be added to a page displaying book details, so that interaction costs of the user exiting the book detail page and reselecting other books so as to switch the book detail page are reduced, thereby improving the efficiency with which the user selects and views book information, increasing the book distribution and the abundance of recommendations, and taking user convenience into account while increasing creativity. The operation is convenient, and time and labor are reduced.
