Solution Overview

Problem

The rapid growth of data storage demand, exceeding the capacity to store it, and the limitations in data transmission bandwidth pose challenges in efficiently managing and transmitting large data sets, especially with the increasing use of multimedia data and the integration of low-bandwidth devices in networked computing applications.

Innovation Solution

A system and method for event-driven data communication using codebooks with protocol adaptation, which enables efficient data transmission by encoding data with a codebook and decoding it into a protocol format, allowing for interoperability and flexible communication between different systems and components.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If data compression is used to increase storage capacity, then storage efficiency is improved, but data transmission bandwidth requirements are not sufficiently reduced and data degradation occurs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestorage capacityVSAvoidbandwidth consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The data transmission process is segmented into event-driven notifications that transmit only changed data states rather than complete data sets. This segmentation approach reduces bandwidth consumption by transmitting minimal necessary information while maintaining storage efficiency through codebook-based compression.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameter of data representation by encoding data as references to codebook entries rather than raw data. This parameter change enables both efficient storage and reduced bandwidth requirements, as only the codebook index and event metadata need to be transmitted rather than the actual data values.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Adaptability or versatility

If protocol conversion is implemented to improve interoperability, then communication flexibility is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveinteroperabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary protocol translation layer that converts between different communication protocols. This intermediary component handles protocol conversion transparently, improving interoperability without significantly increasing overall system complexity, as the conversion logic is encapsulated in a dedicated module rather than distributed throughout the system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements universal protocol handling capabilities that allow a single codebook-based data structure to serve multiple protocol requirements. This multi-functionality approach enables the same encoded data format to be interpreted by different protocols, reducing the need for separate protocol-specific implementations and thereby limiting complexity growth.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Loss of energy

If event-driven transmission is used to reduce bandwidth consumption, then bandwidth efficiency is improved, but protocol compatibility challenges arise

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebandwidth consumptionVSAvoidprotocol compatibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary encoding of data into codebook references before transmission. This preliminary action prepares the data in a compact, protocol-agnostic format that can be efficiently transmitted with minimal bandwidth consumption, while the protocol compatibility is addressed at the decoding stage through protocol-specific interpretation layers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The protocol translation capability is implemented dynamically, allowing the system to adapt to different protocol requirements at runtime without requiring static protocol bindings. This dynamic approach maintains protocol compatibility while enabling efficient event-driven transmission, as the system can adjust its interpretation of encoded data based on the target protocol without reencoding the core data structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

A system and method for event-driven data communication using codebooks with protocol adaption. The system initiates with a request for propagation information from an application to a first transaction manager. The first transaction manager configures a packet describing its location, potentially containing one or more protocol appendices, or encoded data using a codebook. This packet is provided to the application for transmission to another application with a second transaction manager. Upon receiving a protocol request from the second transaction manager, the first transaction manager communicates using a selected protocol decoded from the protocol appendix. If the selected protocol is supported, the transaction proceeds, completing successfully. This system enables transparent encoding, negotiation, and selection of communication protocols, allowing efficient transactions between different transaction managers.
