Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content distribution systems fail to optimize the timing of content delivery to terminal devices based on users' past operation records, leading to potential delays and security breaches due to improper timing and storage of sensitive information.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device that calculates and optimizes the timing of content delivery to terminal devices by analyzing past record temporal differences between scheduled and actual operation start times, ensuring secure and timely access to content at the operation site.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of time

If content data is transmitted in advance to terminal devices, then operation delays are reduced, but information security deteriorates due to potential leakage from stored content

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperation delayVSAvoidinformation security
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by transmitting content data before the scheduled operation time based on predicted arrival times. The server stores difference information from past operations to predict when users will arrive at the operation site, and transmits content data in advance accordingly, reducing operation delays while maintaining security through controlled transmission timing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the transmission timing parameter dynamically based on user-specific difference information. Instead of using a fixed transmission time, the server adjusts the transmission timing for each user based on their historical arrival patterns, optimizing both the timeliness of content delivery and the security by transmitting only when necessary.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If content data is transmitted at fixed scheduled time, then information security is maintained, but operation delays occur due to mismatch with actual operation start time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidoperation delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system transitions from a static fixed-time transmission approach to a dynamic timing approach. The server uses difference information from past operations to predict actual arrival times and adjusts transmission timing dynamically for each user, ensuring content is available exactly when needed without premature transmission that would compromise security.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Reliability

If content data is transmitted late to ensure security, then information leakage is prevented, but operation delays occur affecting productivity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidoperation efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs the necessary action of transmitting content data in advance based on predicted timing, eliminating the need to wait until the last moment. By calculating optimal transmission times using historical difference information, the system ensures content is ready before operations start, improving productivity without compromising security.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
