Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If individual communication paths are manually configured between network service providing servers and routers for each base, then connection stability is improved, but the complexity of settings increases significantly with the number of bases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a communication management server as an intermediary between network service providing servers and routers. This server automatically generates and manages communication path settings, eliminating the need for manual configuration at each base. The intermediary server handles the complexity of setting individual communication paths while maintaining stable connections, thus resolving the contradiction between connection stability and setting complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The communication management server implements self-service by automatically generating communication path settings based on identification information from both the network service providing server and the router. The system autonomously creates optimal connection configurations without requiring manual intervention, thereby maintaining reliable connections while eliminating the complexity of individual path configuration for each base.
2Reliability
If manual configuration of communication paths is performed for each base, then connection stability is improved, but the time required for setup increases
Solution Approach 1:
The communication management server performs preliminary action by pre-generating communication path settings and storing them in advance. When a connection is needed, the server can quickly retrieve and apply pre-configured settings rather than manually configuring each path from scratch. This preliminary preparation maintains connection stability while dramatically reducing the time required for setup.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by automatically generating communication path settings without requiring manual configuration. The communication management server autonomously creates optimal paths based on identification information, eliminating the time-consuming manual setup process while ensuring stable connections through systematic configuration management.
3Productivity
If automated setting generation is implemented, then setup efficiency is improved, but the ability to optimize for various network service types may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The communication management server applies parameter changes by adjusting communication path settings based on the specific type of network service being provided. The server receives identification information that indicates the service type and automatically modifies parameters such as bandwidth allocation, priority levels, and transmission protocols to optimize performance for each service category. This maintains high setup efficiency while preserving the ability to adapt to various network service requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements local quality by applying different optimization parameters to different network service types. The communication management server tailors communication path settings locally according to the specific service requirements indicated by the identification information, ensuring that each service type receives optimal configuration while maintaining overall system efficiency through automated generation.
