Data Interactive Module for Hybrid Computer Coupling
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing hybrid computer systems are inflexible and inconvenient for users, as they require fixed integration of processing systems within a single device, making it difficult to constitute a hybrid system using two computers with different processing capabilities without peer-to-peer processing capabilities.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that enable coupling between two computers through a data interactive module and interface, allowing for data interaction and synchronization using an ordinary data interface, such as USB, without modifying the hardware of the second computer, thereby creating a hybrid system with rapid switching and high stability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If two processing systems are fixedly integrated in one computer, then hybrid computer functions are achieved, but flexibility and user convenience deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the hybrid computer system into two separate physical computers (first computer with high processing capability, second computer with low processing capability) that can independently exist and be used. This segmentation allows users to flexibly configure hybrid system functions by connecting these separate computers through standard interfaces, eliminating the need for fixed integration and improving user convenience while maintaining hybrid functionality.
2Productivity
If two computers are connected through peer-to-peer processing capabilities, then data interaction is achieved, but device complexity and hardware requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a data interactive module as an intermediary component that facilitates data interaction between the first and second computers. This module provides standardized data interfaces that simplify the connection process, allowing computers with different processing capabilities to exchange data without requiring complex peer-to-peer processing capabilities or additional hardware modifications. The intermediary module handles the complexity internally while presenting a simple interface to users.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the second computer hardware is modified to enable hybrid system coupling, then system integration is achieved, but ease of manufacture and deployment deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal data interactive module that can be integrated into any computer system through standard interfaces without requiring hardware modifications. This universal module enables the second computer (with lower processing capability) to participate in hybrid system functions while maintaining its original hardware configuration. The module provides multi-functional capability to interface with different computer systems, achieving system integration while preserving ease of manufacture and deployment.
