Data Access Privilege Processing for Electronic Devices

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for data access between electronic devices are complex and cumbersome, often requiring manual registration or log-in processes, which can be troublesome for frequent interactions between devices used by the same user or within the same family.

Innovation Solution

An information processing method and apparatus that records and judges a preset relationship between electronic devices, authorizing data access based on predefined conditions such as resource occupancy, duration, or frequency, eliminating the need for manual registration or log-in by establishing a data access privilege when these conditions are met.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If manual registration or log-in verification is required for data access between electronic devices, then data security is improved, but the operation complexity and user convenience deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedata securityVSAvoidoperation complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-establishes trust relationships between electronic devices through resource sharing interactions (charging, display, storage) before data access is needed. When devices interact through these preset relationships, the system automatically judges whether authorization conditions are met and grants data access privileges without requiring manual registration or log-in verification at the time of access.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The electronic devices automatically perform authorization judgments and grant data access privileges based on pre-established trust relationships and preset conditions. The system self-manages the authorization process by detecting resource sharing behaviors, evaluating whether authorization conditions are satisfied, and automatically establishing data access privileges without requiring user intervention for each access request.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

2Reliability

If manual authorization setting is required for each device, then access control security is improved, but the time consumption and operational burden increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveaccess control securityVSAvoidtime consumption

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-establishes trust relationships between devices through resource sharing interactions (charging, display, storage) before data access is needed. When devices interact through these preset relationships, the system automatically judges whether authorization conditions are met and grants data access privileges without requiring manual registration or log-in verification at the time of access.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors resource sharing interactions between devices and automatically adjusts authorization status based on whether preset conditions are satisfied. When a device occupies resources (charging, display, storage) and meets the authorization conditions, the system provides feedback by automatically granting data access privileges, eliminating the need for manual authorization setting.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

An information processing method and apparatus are provided. The method is applicable to a first electronic device, where information about a first preset relationship between the first electronic device and a second electronic device is recorded upon detection of the first preset relationship. If it is judged from the recorded information on the first preset relationship that the first preset relationship between the second electronic device and the first electronic device satisfies a first preset condition, then the second electronic device is authorized for a data access privilege so that the second electronic device has a privilege to access data in the first electronic device. This method can lower the complexity of the data access and improve the convenience of the data access between the electronic devices.
