Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Users face inefficiencies in searching for specific categories like hotel prices or product prices within browsers, leading to time loss and revenue loss for industries, as they often need to navigate through general search engines twice.

Innovation Solution

A browser with default category search engine definition capabilities allows users to define specific search engines for categories such as products, travel, and entertainment, processing keywords to launch the appropriate search engine for efficient searching.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If users navigate through general search engines to find category-specific search engines, then they can access specialized search capabilities, but they experience time loss and reduced efficiency

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecategory-specific search capabilityVSAvoidsearch time

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The browser performs preliminary classification of user search keywords against predefined category keywords before launching any search engine. This advance categorization enables the system to automatically select and launch the appropriate category-specific search engine without requiring users to manually navigate through multiple search engines, thereby eliminating time loss while maintaining adaptability to different search needs

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The browser acts as an intermediary between the user and multiple search engines. It receives user input, classifies it against predefined categories, and automatically selects and launches the appropriate category-specific search engine. This intermediary function eliminates the need for users to manually navigate through general search engines to find specialized ones, resolving the contradiction between search versatility and time efficiency

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If users manually search for category search engines through general search engines, then they can access specialized search tools, but they experience loss of revenue for industries and businesses

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecategory search engine accessVSAvoidrevenue loss

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary categorization of search keywords and pre-configures the appropriate category-specific search engines before users need them. This advance preparation eliminates the need for users to repeatedly navigate through general search engines to find specialized ones, reducing the number of search transactions and thereby reducing revenue loss for search engine industries and businesses

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The browser serves as an intermediary that automatically routes users to category-specific search engines based on keyword classification. This automation reduces the number of intermediate navigation steps users must take through general search engines, thereby reducing the economic energy loss associated with redundant search transactions and improving overall system efficiency

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If the browser launches category search engines automatically based on keyword matching, then user efficiency improves, but the browser complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesearch efficiencyVSAvoidbrowser complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The search functionality is segmented into distinct categories with predefined category keywords. Each category has its own associated search engine. This segmentation allows the browser to efficiently match user input against specific category keywords and launch the appropriate search engine without requiring complex decision-making logic, thereby maintaining productivity while managing complexity through structured organization

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameter of search engine selection from manual user choice to automatic system selection based on keyword matching. By establishing predefined categories and their associated search engines, the system transforms a potentially complex multi-step selection process into a simple parameter-matching operation, improving productivity without proportionally increasing browser complexity

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes
