Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The establishment of shared digital asset libraries introduces challenges related to digital asset move options between personal and shared libraries, affecting efficiency, privacy, and user experience.
Innovation Solution
Methods and systems for managing digital asset moves between personal and shared libraries using a collective knowledge application programming interface (API), involving asynchronous operations and sparse DA record management to maintain data integrity and privacy, with options for sharing, unsharing, and exit scenarios.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If digital assets are transferred from personal DA library to shared DA library, then storage efficiency and accessibility are improved, but data privacy and user control may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The DA record is segmented into multiple parts: master record, private properties, and shared properties. When transferring to shared library, only the master record and shared properties are moved, while private properties remain in the personal library. This segmentation allows the system to improve storage efficiency through sharing while maintaining data privacy by keeping sensitive information localized.
2Ease of operation
If digital assets are shared across multiple devices, then accessibility and user experience are improved, but system complexity and management overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary mechanism through the collective knowledge API and standardized record structure that mediates between personal and shared libraries. This intermediary layer handles the complexity of synchronization, permission management, and data consistency, allowing users to access shared assets across devices without directly managing the underlying system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
Different parts of the system are given different qualities: personal libraries maintain full control and privacy with complete DA records, while shared libraries provide accessibility with filtered records. The DA viewer application on each device adapts its behavior based on whether it's accessing personal or shared libraries, providing appropriate local quality for each context.
3Stability of the object's composition
If complete DA records are transferred to shared library, then data consistency is improved, but storage space and transfer time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the essential master record and shared properties from the complete DA record when transferring to the shared library. Private properties are left behind in the personal library. This extraction approach maintains data consistency for shared information while significantly reducing transfer time and storage requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of transferring complete DA records, the system performs partial action by transferring only the necessary master record and shared properties. This partial transfer achieves sufficient data consistency for shared access without the overhead of transferring all data, including private properties that don't need to be shared.

AI summary
This disclosure relates to techniques for managing digital assets (DAs). An example method includes: establishing, by one or more server devices, a personal DA library having DAs and related DA records, each of the DA records including a set of fields including a master record of a respective DA; establishing, by the one or more server devices, a shared DA library separate from the personal DA library; receiving, by the one or more server devices, a share DA instruction related to a particular DA in the personal DA library; transferring a first part of the DA record for the particular DA from the personal DA library to the shared DA library, the first part including the master record; and, after completing said transferring, maintaining a second part of the DA record for the particular DA in the personal DA library, wherein the second part does not include the master record.
