Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional client device query systems are inflexible, inaccurate, and inefficient due to platform-siloed querying, keyword-based ambiguity, and resource wastage in processing multiple software applications and user interactions.

Innovation Solution

A cross-platform search system utilizing a cross-platform language processing model and platform-specific configurations to generate contextually-based responses by extracting intents from digital text queries and generating platform-specific requests across multiple software platforms.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If conventional systems use platform-siloed querying, then each platform can provide specialized responses, but the system loses flexibility and cannot generate appropriate responses for cross-platform queries

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecross-platform query capabilityVSAvoidsystem architecture complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal query processing system that can handle queries from multiple different platforms through a single unified architecture. The system uses a common user interface that accepts queries from any platform and routes them to appropriate platform-specific services, eliminating the need for separate dedicated interfaces for each platform while maintaining platform-specific response capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary query routing layer that sits between the user interface and platform-specific services. This intermediary component receives queries from any platform, determines the appropriate target platform, and routes the query accordingly. This mediator approach allows the system to maintain flexibility across platforms without requiring direct integration between each platform and the user interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If conventional systems use keyword-based query processing, then the system can process natural language queries, but it introduces ambiguity and ignores contextual meanings leading to inaccurate responses

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequery response accuracyVSAvoidlanguage processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by detecting the specific platform context within a query and tailoring the query processing and response generation to match that platform's specific terminology, conventions, and data structures. Instead of using a uniform keyword-based approach, the system adapts its processing behavior based on the detected platform context, providing platform-appropriate responses that account for local semantic nuances.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Productivity

If conventional systems process queries on a platform-by-platform basis with separate user interfaces, then each platform can be optimized for its specific queries, but it wastes significant computing resources through parallel software applications and repetitive processing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomputational efficiencyVSAvoiduser interaction complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple platform-specific query processing operations into a single unified processing pipeline. Instead of running separate software applications for each platform, the system combines query reception, platform detection, routing, and response generation into one integrated process. This consolidation eliminates redundant computing operations while maintaining the ability to provide platform-specific optimized responses through a single user interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
