Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing data service systems face challenges in efficiently managing and coordinating data tasks across multiple business teams, leading to difficulties in ensuring timely completion of data tasks due to complex task hierarchies and varying timing relationships between task completion and service level agreement times.
Innovation Solution
A data task management method and apparatus that determines sub-data tasks within a target task link and displays task time information using a Gantt chart, showcasing hierarchical relationships and timing relationships between task completion and service level agreement times through different display styles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If data tasks are managed through collaboration of multiple business teams, then data service capability is improved, but task coordination complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments complex data tasks into sub-tasks and organizes them into task links with hierarchical structures. Each task link represents a manageable unit of work that can be independently tracked and coordinated, reducing the overall coordination complexity while maintaining comprehensive data service capability across multiple business teams.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a task management system that acts as an intermediary between multiple business teams. This system provides centralized task link management, visual monitoring through Gantt charts, and automated coordination mechanisms, serving as a mediator that simplifies inter-team collaboration without reducing service capability.
2Stability of the object's composition
If hierarchical task structures are implemented, then task organization is improved, but visualization complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms hierarchical task structures into a two-dimensional Gantt chart visualization, where the hierarchical relationships are represented through vertical positioning and task sequences are shown horizontally across time. This dimensional transformation maintains stable task organization while providing intuitive visual representation that reduces perceived complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates visual copies of task relationships through standardized Gantt chart symbols and markers. Different markers represent different timing relationships (early, on-time, delayed completion), allowing complex hierarchical structures to be understood through simplified visual copies rather than detailed textual descriptions.
3Measurement precision
If timing relationships are tracked in detail, then task monitoring precision is improved, but information processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses different markers and visual indicators to represent different timing relationships between task completion and service level agreement times. Early completions, on-time completions, and delayed completions are distinguished through visual variations, enabling precise timing monitoring while simplifying information processing through intuitive visual categorization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms detailed timing data into standardized parameters represented by different markers in the Gantt chart. By converting continuous timing information into discrete visual categories (early, on-time, delayed), the system maintains precise timing monitoring capability while reducing information processing complexity through parameter standardization.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a data task management method and apparatus, a readable medium, and an electronic device. The method includes: determining, in response to a selection operation for a task link corresponding to a target data task, at least one sub-data task included in a target task link corresponding to the selection operation; and displaying task time information of the at least one sub-data task included in the target task link in a form of a Gantt chart, according to a hierarchical relationship of the at least one sub-data task, wherein different timing relationships between task completion time of the at least one sub-data task and service level agreement time of the at least one sub-data task are displayed in the Gantt chart through different display styles.
