Digital Asset Validation Before Transmission
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing digital asset submission process for online distribution is time-consuming and inefficient, particularly for large files, as it often requires multiple attempts and lengthy transmission times, with a high likelihood of validation failures.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for validating digital assets before transmission, where a client provides a summary of the assets, which are validated against rules by a digital asset submission system, allowing for successful submission only if validation is successful, thereby streamlining the process and reducing errors.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If digital files are transmitted directly for submission, then the submission process is simple, but the validation time is long and multiple attempts are required
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs validation actions before the actual submission transmission. A validation server checks digital asset files against required criteria and generates validation results before the files are transmitted to the distribution system, ensuring successful validation prior to submission and eliminating the need for multiple retry attempts
Solution Approach 2:
A validation server is introduced as an intermediary component between the submitter and the distribution system. This intermediary performs validation checks on digital asset files, generates validation results, and enables the submission process to proceed only when validation succeeds, thereby improving reliability without increasing time loss
2Productivity
If validation checks are performed after transmission, then the transmission process is fast, but validation failures require re-submission and waste time
Solution Approach 1:
Validation checks are performed as a preliminary action before transmission to the distribution system. The validation server examines digital asset files against required criteria and generates validation results in advance, ensuring that only validated files proceed to transmission, thereby eliminating re-submission time losses
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by having the validation server provide validation results to the submitter before transmission occurs. This feedback mechanism allows the submitter to understand validation status upfront and correct any issues beforehand, preventing time-wasting re-submissions after transmission failures
3Measurement precision
If comprehensive validation is performed, then the validation accuracy is high, but the validation process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
A dedicated validation server acts as an intermediary that handles comprehensive validation checks. This specialized intermediary component performs detailed validation of digital asset files against required criteria, separating the complexity of validation from the submission process and maintaining high validation accuracy without increasing overall system complexity for the user
Solution Approach 2:
The validation process replaces manual or simple transmission checks with automated validation server processing. The validation server uses automated systems to examine file formats, metadata, and content against required criteria, achieving comprehensive validation accuracy through automated mechanisms rather than complex manual processes

AI summary
A system and method for submission of digital assets to a digital asset submission system are disclosed. The digital asset submission system can manage submissions of digital assets to a network-based distribution system. Submission of digital assets to the digital asset submission system can be performed over a network in a controlled manner such that the digital assets can be validated prior to transmission of the digital assets to the digital asset submission system. Advantageously, digital assets to be submitted for distribution can be substantially validated before the digital assets are transmitted to the digital asset submission system.
