Solution Overview

Problem

Processing computers cause inefficiencies in data flow by processing all data values in a data packet, including biometric templates, leading to bottlenecks and security risks due to exposure of sensitive data to malicious entities.

Innovation Solution

Data packets are split into multiple data values, and authorization request messages are generated for each value, allowing parallel processing and transmission to specialized processing computers, with authorization determined by an authorization computer.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a processing computer processes every data value in a data packet, then comprehensive data evaluation is achieved, but processing bottlenecks and inefficiencies occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomprehensive data evaluationVSAvoidprocessing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the data packet into multiple separate data values and routes them to different processing computers based on their types. Each processing computer handles only its assigned data values in parallel, eliminating the single processing bottleneck while maintaining comprehensive evaluation of all data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If all data values are sent to the processing computer, then complete data analysis is possible, but security risks increase due to exposure of sensitive data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomplete data analysisVSAvoidsecurity risks
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments data values and routes them to multiple different processing computers rather than consolidating all data in one location. This distribution limits the exposure of sensitive data to any single processing computer, reducing security risks while still enabling complete data analysis across the distributed system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by assigning specific data values to specific processing computers based on their types or processing requirements. Each processing computer handles only the data values appropriate for its function, minimizing unnecessary exposure of sensitive data to systems that don't require them.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Reliability

If data values are held in memory while biometric templates are evaluated, then all data can be processed, but data flow inefficiencies occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomplete data processingVSAvoiddata flow efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the data packet so that different data values are routed to different processing computers simultaneously. This allows parallel processing of all data values without requiring any data to be held in memory waiting for sequential processing, eliminating data flow inefficiencies while ensuring complete processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

A disclosed method includes a data distribution computer receiving a data packet comprising a plurality of data values in response to an interaction between a resource provider and a user. The data distribution computer can then determine a data item for each data value of the plurality of data values and associate each data value to a processing computer using the data item for each data value. The data distribution computer can generate a plurality of authorization request messages comprising at least one data value. The data distribution computer can then transmit the plurality of authorization request messages to a plurality of processing computers adapted to process the data values in the respective authorization request messages, wherein the plurality of processing computers process the data values in the respective authorization request messages. The plurality of authorization request messages are subsequently forwarded to the authorization computer. The authorization computer analyzes each authorization request message to authorize or decline the interaction.
