Cloud Cross-Clipboard for Seamless Document Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional cloud services fail to provide uninterrupted access to documents across different devices and time due to differences in service capabilities and user environments, requiring users to repeatedly search for and access documents on each device.
Innovation Solution
A cloud-based document link system utilizing a cross-clipboard to store and link documents across multiple devices, allowing seamless copy and paste operations between devices, and providing a list of linkable services for continued document usage across various devices and times.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional cloud services are used to provide documents on the Internet, then documents can be accessed on multiple devices, but uninterrupted access across different devices and time cannot be achieved due to differences in service capabilities and user environments
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a clipboard server as an intermediary component that mediates between multiple terminals and document services. The clipboard server stores clipboard information centrally and manages the transfer of document data between different devices, ensuring that document access remains uninterrupted across diverse service environments and user platforms.
2Ease of operation
If users search for documents on each device separately, then documents can be accessed on any device, but time is wasted due to repeated search processes
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically storing clipboard information from the first terminal in the clipboard server before the user needs to access it on another device. This pre-storage mechanism eliminates the need for repeated searches, as the document data is already available in the clipboard server when the user switches terminals.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a first device uses a first Internet browser to find a document, then the document can be viewed on the first device, but the same document cannot be used on a second device without repeating the search process
Solution Approach 1:
The clipboard server provides a universal platform that works across different terminals, browsers, and service environments. By centralizing clipboard information storage and management, the system enables the same document access functionality to work universally across diverse devices without requiring device-specific configurations or repeated search processes.

AI summary
Provided is a cloud-based document link system and a method that uses a processor to provide a method for providing a service configured to paste a document stored on a cross-clipboard. The cloud-based document link system includes a storage unit configured to store, on a cross-clipboard, at least one first document associated with a first service provided through a first device, an identification unit configured to identify at least one second service linkable with each first document based on whether the at least one second service is configured to paste the at least one first document stored on the cross-clipboard, and a providing unit configured to provide a list of each second service if the cross-clipboard is accessed through a second device.
