Problem

The manual intervention technique for resource control based on user intent is costly and prone to human error, with a risk of unnoticed resource or parameter leaks and inadequate response to changes in the service provision environment.

Innovation Solution

A data processing apparatus and method that automatically extracts candidates for resources and parameters from service provision files and allows designation of these resources and parameters for intent-based control, reducing human intervention and improving responsiveness to environmental changes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If manual intervention technique is used to grasp adjustable resources and parameters through inquiry to developers or administrators, then resource control based on user intent can be achieved, but large human cost is generated and the process is time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource control accuracyVSAvoidtime for resource extraction
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service by automatically extracting resource and parameter information from service provision environment configurations, eliminating the need for manual inquiry to developers or administrators. The extraction unit autonomously identifies adjustable resources and parameters by analyzing configuration files and environment settings, thereby reducing human cost and time consumption while maintaining accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The manual mechanical process of inquiring to human developers or administrators is replaced with an automated information processing system. The extraction unit uses computational methods to parse configuration files, detect environment changes, and identify resources and parameters, substituting human manual work with automated mechanical/electronic information processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If manual intervention technique is used to identify resources and parameters, then resource control can be performed, but there is a risk of unnoticed resource or parameter leaks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource control accuracyVSAvoidresource leakage
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system autonomously monitors and extracts all adjustable resources and parameters from the service provision environment without human intervention. By continuously analyzing configuration files and environment settings, the system ensures complete identification of resources and parameters, preventing any leaks or omissions that would occur with manual inquiry methods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements continuous feedback by monitoring changes in the service provision environment and automatically updating the extracted resource and parameter information. This closed-loop approach ensures that any new or changed resources are detected and included in the control process, preventing resource leaks through ongoing verification and updates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If manual intervention technique is used for resource control, then initial resource identification can be achieved, but there is a problem in responding to changes in controllable resource or parameter due to environment changes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource identification accuracyVSAvoidresponse to environment changes
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system transitions from static manual identification to dynamic automated extraction that continuously adapts to environment changes. The extraction unit dynamically monitors the service provision environment, detects changes in configurations or specifications, and automatically updates the identified resources and parameters, ensuring the system remains adaptable to evolving conditions without requiring manual re-inquiry.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary extraction of resources and parameters from configuration files and environment settings before control operations begin. By pre-identifying all adjustable elements and setting up automated monitoring, the system is prepared to respond to environment changes without delay, eliminating the response time issues inherent in manual intervention approaches.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
