Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If automatic model generation is performed by capturing standardized documents, then model creation efficiency is improved, but existing development documents that do not follow the standardized format cannot be processed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a standardized document as an intermediary between existing development documents and the automatic model generation system. The conversion unit transforms existing documents into the standardized format, enabling the model generation unit to process them automatically. This mediator approach allows the system to maintain high automation efficiency while accommodating diverse existing document formats.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent divides the document processing system into distinct functional units: a conversion unit that handles format transformation and a model generation unit that creates models. This segmentation allows each unit to specialize in its function, with the conversion unit dealing with format adaptability and the model generation unit focusing on automated model creation from standardized inputs.
2Ease of operation
If development documents are created without standardized formats, then flexibility in document creation is improved, but automatic model generation becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary conversion of existing development documents into standardized formats before model generation. The conversion unit pre-processes documents to establish a uniform structure, enabling subsequent automatic model generation without requiring changes to the original flexible document creation process.
Solution Approach 2:
The standardized document format serves as an intermediary that bridges flexible document creation and automated model generation. Existing documents maintain their creation flexibility while being transformed into a standardized intermediate format that the automated model generation system can process.
