Solution Overview

Problem

Internet communities face a high communication barrier, limiting the sharing of content-related results across different communities, which restricts user activity and advertising efficiency.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that assign unique IDs to communities posting or scrapping content, allowing for the sharing of results across communities with common IDs, enabling direct or indirect posting and scraping of content, and providing collective results to members.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If communities maintain separate operations without shared identification, then each community can independently manage its content, but communication barriers prevent sharing of content-related results across communities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecross-community content sharingVSAvoidcommunity identification system
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies universality by introducing a common ID system that enables communities to maintain their independence while allowing cross-community content sharing. The common ID acts as a universal identifier that bridges separate community systems, enabling results from one community to be shared across multiple communities without requiring complete system integration.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses an intermediary approach by introducing a community management server that mediates between separate community systems. This server assigns common IDs to communities and manages the sharing of content-related results, acting as an intermediary that enables cross-community communication without requiring direct integration between individual communities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of information

If communities allow direct content posting and scraping without identification systems, then content sharing is simple, but there is no mechanism to track or share results across different communities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent result sharingVSAvoidID assignment and tracking system
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by assigning common IDs to communities before content posting and scraping operations occur. This pre-assignment of identifiers enables automatic tracking and sharing of content results across communities without requiring complex real-time identification mechanisms during content operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback by establishing a mechanism where content execution results are automatically collected and distributed back to communities with matching common IDs. The community management server monitors content performance and provides feedback by sharing results with relevant communities, creating a closed-loop information system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If a unified community system is implemented, then content results can be shared across all communities, but individual community autonomy and management flexibility are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising efficiencyVSAvoidcommunity management autonomy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by maintaining separate community operational structures while introducing a higher-level common ID system for coordination. Each community retains its independence and management autonomy, but segments are grouped under common IDs that enable result sharing, allowing both unified productivity benefits and individual operational flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent combines separate community systems at the identification level while maintaining operational independence. Communities with common IDs are merged in terms of result sharing and advertising efficiency, while each community continues to operate autonomously, achieving a partial merge that balances unity and independence.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

The present invention relates to a method, system, and computer-readable recoding medium for sharing a result related to contents. The method for sharing a result related to contents includes the steps of assigning different identifications (IDs) to communities in which the contents are primarily and/or secondarily posted if a user requests to directly scrap and post the contents of a server, and collectively providing a result created in relation to the contents belonging to communities having a common ID if the result is created in relation to the primarily and/or secondarily posted contents.
