Existing systems lack an efficient method for managing and authenticating the transfer of digital assets, such as print data, across different systems and platforms, leading to issues with data format discrepancies and authenticity verification.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device with a linker and updater that connects identification information of individuals and objects involved in transfers, and includes an authenticity determination unit to verify the legitimacy of printed matter, ensuring secure and transparent transactions by embedding attribute information into the printed data.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If identification information is manually tracked for digital asset transfers, then traceability is maintained, but the complexity of managing transfer transactions across different systems increases significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovetraceabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a transfer transaction management system that acts as an intermediary between different systems and platforms. This system automatically links identification information of persons and objects involved in transfers, eliminating the need for manual tracking while maintaining traceability. The intermediary system handles the complexity of cross-system data format discrepancies and authentication, providing a unified interface for users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The transfer transaction management system is designed to handle multiple functions within a single platform: linking identification information, authenticating digital assets, managing transfer transactions, and ensuring data format consistency across different systems. This multi-functional approach reduces overall system complexity by consolidating previously separate functions into one universal system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Productivity

If data format standardization is implemented across different systems, then transfer efficiency improves, but the adaptability to handle diverse digital asset formats decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransfer efficiencyVSAvoidformat flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts data format parameters based on the specific digital asset being transferred. Rather than enforcing a rigid standardization, the system modifies format parameters to accommodate different asset types while maintaining core transfer transaction structures. This allows efficient processing through standardized protocols while preserving adaptability for diverse formats.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The data format handling in the system is dynamic rather than static. The system automatically adapts data formats during transfer transactions based on the asset type, source system, and destination system requirements. This dynamic approach maintains transfer efficiency through automated format conversion while preserving versatility to handle various digital asset formats.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Speed

If authentication protocols are simplified for faster verification, then transfer speed increases, but the precision of authenticity verification decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveverification speedVSAvoidauthentication accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary authentication actions by pre-linking identification information and establishing trust relationships before actual transfer transactions occur. This preliminary setup enables faster verification during transfers while maintaining high authentication accuracy, as the foundational verification work has already been completed in advance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The authentication process operates continuously rather than as discrete interruptive steps. The system maintains ongoing verification of identification information and digital asset authenticity throughout the transfer process, enabling fast verification without sacrificing precision. The continuous authentication ensures accuracy while flowing seamlessly with the transfer operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action
