Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content management systems (CMS) fail to differentiate between time-sensitive and non-time-sensitive digital content, requiring manual scheduling for all content types, leading to inefficient use of network resources, potential delays, and increased computational demands.

Innovation Solution

An enhanced CMS that categorizes digital content into time-sensitive and non-time-sensitive types, allowing immediate release of non-time-sensitive content without scheduling and storing time-sensitive content in a temporary sub-storage for scheduled release, thereby reducing computational and network resource usage.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If all digital content is stored in temporary sub-storage and requires scheduling for release, then time-sensitive content can be managed, but non-time-sensitive content consumes unnecessary storage resources and network resources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetime-sensitive content delivery reliabilityVSAvoidstorage resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments digital content into two categories: time-sensitive content and non-time-sensitive content. This segmentation allows the system to apply different storage and release strategies to each category, storing only time-sensitive content in temporary sub-storage while allowing non-time-sensitive content to be released immediately, thereby reducing unnecessary storage resource consumption while maintaining reliable delivery for time-sensitive content

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by creating different storage paths for different content types. Time-sensitive content is stored in temporary sub-storage with scheduled release, while non-time-sensitive content bypasses temporary storage and is released immediately. This localized differentiation optimizes resource usage for each content type according to its specific requirements

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Ease of operation

If manual scheduling is required for all digital content release, then release control is maintained, but user burden increases and human errors occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent release operation simplicityVSAvoidrelease scheduling accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by enabling non-time-sensitive content to automatically bypass the scheduling process and be released immediately without user intervention. The system autonomously determines content type and applies appropriate release strategies, reducing user burden and eliminating human errors in scheduling while maintaining control over time-sensitive content through optional scheduling

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Productivity

If scheduling process is applied to all content types, then release timing can be controlled, but network resources are wasted on unnecessary scheduling operations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent release efficiencyVSAvoidnetwork resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the scheduling operation from the general content release process and applies it only where necessary. Non-time-sensitive content is excluded from the scheduling process entirely and released immediately, eliminating wasteful network resource consumption on unnecessary scheduling operations while maintaining controlled release for time-sensitive content through selective application of scheduling

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

4Adaptability or versatility

If temporary sub-storage is used for all content, then scheduled release is possible, but storage capacity requirements increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverelease scheduling flexibilityVSAvoidstorage capacity requirement
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSVolume of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the storage architecture into temporary sub-storage for time-sensitive content and direct release pathways for non-time-sensitive content. This segmentation reduces the volume requirement for temporary sub-storage since only time-sensitive content needs to be held temporarily, while maintaining release scheduling flexibility for content types that require it

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A system for managing digital content, the system comprising: a memory storing instructions; at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: receive, by a Content Management Platform, a first digital content and a second digital content; determine, by a Content Delivery Management Module and a Scheduler Module, a content type of each of the received first digital content and the received second digital content; and store, by the Content Delivery Management Module and based on the determined content type, the first digital content and the second digital content in a Content Storage.
