Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content transmission methods face inefficiencies during peak network usage or network instability, leading to low transmission efficiency and potential network errors.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for content transmission that involves obtaining multiple pieces of content, splitting them into groups, transmitting the first group to the client, storing other groups, and transmitting additional groups upon subsequent requests with a user identifier, thereby reducing the need for repeated data production and improving efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If content is transmitted in full for each request, then the client can access all content, but the transmission efficiency decreases during peak network usage

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransmission efficiencyVSAvoiddata transmission amount
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments content into multiple groups and transmits them in batches rather than fully for each request. The server divides content into first content, second content, third content, etc., and transmits only the first group initially, then subsequent groups on demand, reducing overall data transmission volume during peak usage periods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The server performs preliminary content preparation by obtaining and splitting content into groups before actual transmission requests. The content is pre-processed and organized into manageable segments, allowing efficient incremental transmission rather than full content transfer for each request.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If content is obtained and stored for subsequent requests, then the success rate of content retrieval improves, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent retrieval success rateVSAvoidcontent management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments content into multiple groups (first content, second content, third content) and manages them systematically. This segmentation allows the server to track and retrieve specific content groups based on request patterns, improving retrieval success while maintaining manageable complexity through structured organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The server uses feedback from client requests to determine which content groups to transmit. Based on the request information, the server identifies which content groups need to be obtained and stored, creating a feedback-driven content management system that improves retrieval reliability while adapting to actual usage patterns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Quantity of substance

If content is split into multiple groups and transmitted incrementally, then the data transmission amount per request decreases, but the transmission time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission amount per requestVSAvoidtotal transmission time
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments content into manageable groups that can be transmitted incrementally. By dividing content into first content, second content, third content, etc., the system reduces the data transmission amount per request, making each transmission operation lighter and more efficient despite increasing the number of transmission steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The server maintains continuous content preparation and organization, pre-splitting content into groups and keeping them ready for transmission. This continuous preparation ensures that when requests come in, the content is already organized and can be transmitted efficiently in incremental batches, reducing overall transmission time despite the segmented approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

AI summary

The embodiment of the disclosure provides a content transmission method and apparatus, a device and a storage medium. The method includes: in response to receiving a first request for content from a client, obtaining a plurality of pieces of content, wherein the first request comprises a user identifier; splitting the plurality of pieces of content into a plurality of groups of content; transmitting a first group of content in the plurality of groups of content to the client; storing other groups of content in the plurality of groups of content; and in response to receiving a second request comprising the user identifier for the content from the client, transmitting a second group of content in the stored other groups of content to the client. Therefore, the efficiency of content transmission is improved.
