Communication Control for Mobile-Object Service Bottleneck Response
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication control systems fail to automatically identify and address the underlying factors causing bottlenecks in service provision systems, leading to communication problems, as they either rely on response delay times without identifying the delay factors or require manual network selection by users or administrators.
Innovation Solution
A communication control system that includes an identification unit to detect bottlenecks, a decision unit to determine control methods, and a notification unit to inform a main control entity to execute these methods, thereby automatically addressing the identified bottlenecks.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If edge host computer apparatus switches connection destination based on service response delay time, then communication efficiency is improved, but the fundamental delay factor is not eliminated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the service provision system into multiple service provision apparatuses distributed across different locations. Each apparatus independently provides services to terminal apparatuses, enabling localized service delivery that reduces communication delay while maintaining system reliability. This segmentation allows the system to address delay factors at multiple levels simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic service selection where terminal apparatuses can choose different service provision apparatuses based on real-time communication conditions. The system dynamically adjusts connection destinations and service routing to optimize performance, eliminating the need for fixed connection paths and enabling adaptive response to changing network conditions.
2Measurement precision
If monitoring apparatus analyzes packets to determine network bottlenecks, then network status is improved, but automatic system response is not achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where terminal apparatuses receive notification information from service provision apparatuses about service status and communication conditions. This feedback enables terminal apparatuses to automatically select optimal service provision apparatuses without requiring manual monitoring or administrator intervention, achieving automatic system response while maintaining precise network status awareness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent enables terminal apparatuses to autonomously select and switch between service provision apparatuses based on received notification information. The system performs self-optimization by automatically determining the best service provider without external control, achieving both precise monitoring and automatic response through distributed decision-making at the terminal level.
3Duration of action of moving object
If application server reduces multiplicity of executing application programs to cope with bottlenecks, then processing time is improved, but network delay factors cannot be addressed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent addresses network delay factors by operating in a different dimension - the spatial distribution of service provision apparatuses. Instead of optimizing processing time through program execution control, the system optimizes communication by providing services through multiple geographically distributed apparatuses, thereby addressing network delay from a spatial perspective rather than a temporal processing perspective.

AI summary
It is possible to give a notification for coping with a factor that causes a bottleneck of a communication problem in a service provision system that provides a service from a provision source server to a mobile object. A communication control system or a communication control apparatus identifies a bottleneck of a communication problem in a service provision system that provides a service from a provision source server to a mobile object. A communication control system or a communication control apparatus decides a control method in accordance with the bottleneck identified by the identifying and notifies a notification destination serving as a main control entity that executes control by the control method of the control method decided by the decision.
