Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems face challenges in accurately tracking cross-border data transmissions due to varying geographic region-specific requirements and laws, making it difficult to manage file data as it moves across different jurisdictions.

Innovation Solution

A data passport entry system that generates a unique identifier for files based on origination and destination location identifiers, file theme scores, hash values, and count scores, using natural language processing to analyze file data and compare it against a theme database, ensuring compliance with regional regulations.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If manual tracking methods are used for cross-border data transmissions, then system complexity is reduced, but tracking accuracy and compliance monitoring capability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetracking accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by embedding tracking metadata and digital watermarks into files before transmission. This allows automated identification and tracking throughout the cross-border transmission process, improving tracking accuracy while reducing the need for complex manual monitoring systems.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates digital copies of file metadata and transmission records that can be automatically processed and compared across different jurisdictions. This copying mechanism enables accurate tracking without requiring complex human intervention at each stage of the transmission process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

2Reliability

If comprehensive theme analysis is performed on all files, then compliance with regional laws is improved, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecompliance assuranceVSAvoidprocessing time

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies partial action by performing theme analysis selectively based on file characteristics, destination jurisdiction requirements, and risk levels. Not all files undergo the same level of analysis, allowing the system to maintain compliance assurance while reducing overall processing time through targeted rather than universal analysis.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The system applies local quality by tailoring the depth and type of theme analysis to specific destination jurisdictions and file types. Different regions receive analysis appropriate to their legal requirements, and different file types receive specialized analysis, improving compliance without uniformly increasing processing time for all files.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality

3Loss of information

If detailed file metadata is collected and stored, then tracking capability is improved, but data storage requirements and processing load increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetracking information completenessVSAvoiddata storage volume

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential tracking metadata needed for cross-border monitoring, separating critical identification information from unnecessary file details. This extraction approach maintains complete tracking information while minimizing data storage requirements and processing loads by storing only what is essential for compliance monitoring.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

4Speed

If real-time analysis is performed on cross-border transmissions, then response speed is improved, but computing resource consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetracking response speedVSAvoidcomputing resource consumption

Core Design Contradiction:

SpeedVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system uses periodic action by implementing real-time analysis at critical checkpoints rather than continuous monitoring of all data flows. This allows the system to maintain fast response speeds at decision points while reducing overall computing resource consumption by analyzing data periodically rather than continuously throughout the entire transmission process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for tracking cross border data transmissions and generating a data passport entry in an electronic network. The present disclosure is configured to receive a file, the file comprising file data; receive an origination location identifier and destination location identifier of the file; parse the file data and apply a natural language processor to the file data to generate a structured meaning of the file data; compare the structured meaning of the file data to a theme database to generate a file theme score; determine, based on the destination location identifier, a destination theme score; generate a hash value for the file; and generate a data passport entry for the file based on the file name, the origination location identifier, the destination location identifier, the file theme score, the destination theme score, the hash value, and a count score.
