Data Display Control Apparatus for Repetitive Content Filtering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The inefficiency in data display systems, where repetitive data overwhelms clients, reducing the ability to quickly find non-repetitive important data, is a persistent issue in user-generated content platforms like microblogs, where users may miss crucial updates due to excessive repetitive data pushed at intervals.
Innovation Solution
A control method and apparatus that determines whether to display received target data based on factors such as the number of times it has been received within a predetermined time period and its previous display status, ensuring that non-repetitive data is prioritized and displayed without mixing with repetitive data, thereby enhancing search efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If same data is sent repeatedly at intervals to ensure users receive important data, then data delivery reliability is improved, but the client receives large amounts of repetitive data that mixes with non-repetitive data, greatly reducing search efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts repetitive data from the data stream and handles it separately through deduplication mechanisms. The server identifies and marks repetitive data, allowing the client to filter them out efficiently, thus separating the harmful repetitive content from valuable non-repetitive data while maintaining reliable delivery of important information
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of data identification by introducing unique identifiers and timestamps. By tracking data based on these parameters, the system can distinguish between repetitive and non-repetitive data, allowing reliable delivery without overwhelming the user with duplicates
2Device complexity
If data is displayed in reverse chronological order from new to old, then data organization is simplified, but important data pushed earlier may not be seen by users in time due to different login times
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by proactively pushing important data to users' devices when they are online, rather than waiting for them to check later. The server identifies important data and actively delivers it during the user's online period, ensuring timely visibility without requiring complex reorganization of display order
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses feedback mechanisms where the server tracks user online status and login patterns. Based on this feedback, the system adjusts data pushing strategies to ensure important data is delivered when users are most likely to see it, balancing simple chronological organization with timely delivery

AI summary
A control method and apparatus for data display are described. The method includes: receiving, by a first client at current time, first target data pushed by a second client; determining, by the first client, whether the first target data pushed by the second client has been received within a first predetermined time period before the current time; and determining, by the first client at least according to the number of times that the first target data is received within the first predetermined time period and whether the first target data received within the first predetermined time period has been displayed on the first client, whether to display, on the first client, the first target data received at the current time if the first client determines that the first client has received, within the first predetermined time period, the first target data pushed by the second client.
