Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional patent process is used to manage and protect technological innovations, then patent protection is provided, but the process is inefficient and ineffective leading to imbalanced and poorly protected patent portfolios

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepatent protection qualityVSAvoidpatent management efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service through automated patent analysis and strategy generation. The computer system automatically quantifies technologies into market-tech units, calculates generational and phase development data, assesses innovation levels, and determines optimal patent protection strategies without requiring manual intervention, thereby improving both efficiency and protection quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent process replaces manual mechanical operations with automated computer-based systems. Machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence models substitute for human analysts in quantifying technologies, calculating development data, and determining patent strategies, leading to more consistent and efficient patent portfolio management

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Loss of energy

If conventional patent process is used, then patent applications are filed, but resources are wasted and opportunities are missed due to inefficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource wasteVSAvoidpatent process effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously monitoring patent portfolio balance and quality. The computer system analyzes patent data, compares it against target portfolios, and provides feedback to adjust patent strategies in real-time, ensuring resources are allocated efficiently and opportunities are captured before they are lost

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-quantifying technologies into market-tech units and pre-calculating generational and phase development data before patent filing decisions are made. This advance preparation enables more informed and efficient patent strategy formulation, reducing resource waste in later stages

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

A computer includes an improved architecture of a computing entity (CE) processing core section, a technology level (TL) co-processor section, a system database section, and a memory section, which stores a CE operating system and a TL operating system. The database section stores TL data operands regarding quantified technologies and the memory section further stores TL system applications, and TL user applications. The CE processing core section executes the TL operating system and the CE operating system. The TL co-processor section executes TL system application(s), in accordance with control of the TL operating system and the CE operating system, to produce TL data operands regarding quantified technologies from a large number of MSBTP documents. The TL co-processor section executes TL user application(s), in accordance with control of the TL operating system and the CE operating system, to produce a digital representation of a characteristic of the quantified technology for display.
