Common Container Interface for Cross-Platform Script Reuse
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing user interface technologies face challenges in seamlessly integrating scripts from different platforms, leading to inefficiencies, additional development efforts, and sub-optimal user experiences when projects need to transition between older and newer versions, with no existing solutions allowing scripts from different technologies like ANGULAR and REACT to interact cohesively in a single web container.
Innovation Solution
A common container interface (CCI) that processes and manages components from multiple libraries, prioritizing their execution and ensuring compatibility, allowing scripts from different platforms like ANGULAR, REACT, or Jquery to run together in a single web container, reusing old scripts without rewriting, and providing a seamless user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If scripts from different platform technologies (e.g., ANGULAR, REACT) are loaded in separate applications, then each script can run independently without conflicts, but development overhead increases and user experience becomes fragmented
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple platform scripts from different technologies (ANGULAR, REACT, etc.) into a single web container. The container loads and executes these scripts together in one unified environment, eliminating the need for separate applications while maintaining their independent execution capabilities through isolation mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The web container is designed as a universal platform that can host and execute scripts from multiple different platform technologies simultaneously. It provides a multi-functional environment that accommodates various script types and frameworks without requiring separate dedicated containers for each technology.
2Ease of operation
If old scripts are rewritten on new platform technologies, then user experience improves and modern features are available, but development time and resources increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables old scripts to continue running in the updated web container environment without requiring preliminary rewriting actions. The container is pre-configured to support multiple platform technologies, allowing legacy scripts to execute as-is while benefiting from modern infrastructure and security updates.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the execution environment parameters of the web container to support multiple platform technologies simultaneously. By adjusting the container's configuration parameters to be technology-agnostic and multi-compatible, old scripts can run unchanged while the system provides modern capabilities.
3Ease of operation
If a project is abandoned and started afresh using newer platform technology, then user experience is optimized and modern features are utilized, but resource costs and maintenance overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of discarding old scripts entirely, the patent recovers and reuses them within the new web container environment. The system retains valuable existing script functionality while recovering benefits from modern platform capabilities, avoiding the waste of resources that would result from complete rewriting.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a virtual copy of the execution environment that mimics the behavior of multiple platform technologies within a single container. This copying approach allows old scripts to run in their original context while the physical infrastructure uses modern, resource-efficient technology.
4Device complexity
If only one platform technology script is loaded in a web container at a time, then script execution is simple and manageable, but the container cannot provide seamless integration of multiple platform scripts
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the multi-platform script execution environment into isolated execution contexts within the single web container. Each platform script runs in its own isolated segment or namespace, preventing conflicts between different technologies while allowing them to coexist and interact when needed.
Data Source
AI summary
A common container interface and a method of using the same for running different platform scripts on a same user window are disclosed. A processor via the common container interface is configured to: (1) receive information related to an event broadcasted by a first library; (2) retrieve information of a first active task associated with a first platform; (3) detect a performance of a second active task associated with a second platform; (4) identify a set of components loaded in the common container interface; (5) process the set of components loaded in the common container interface; (6) retrieve components of a second library; and (7) perform a final task based on the components retrieved from the second library, where the final task is associated with the first active task and the second platform.
