Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the traditional diffusion way is used to publish microblog messages to predetermined target users, then the messages can be delivered to the users, but the operations become very complex and users receive unwanted messages they do not wish to receive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperation complexityVSAvoidunwanted messages
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the keyword matching function from the traditional diffusion process. Instead of manually managing message distribution, the system automatically extracts and matches keywords between published messages and user profiles, delivering only relevant messages while filtering out unwanted ones.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback through keyword matching mechanisms. User keywords and message keywords are compared, and the matching results feedback into the message delivery process, enabling automatic filtering and personalization without complex manual operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of operation

If manual deletion of unwanted messages is required, then users can remove irrelevant content, but the user operations become cumbersome and complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser operationsVSAvoidtime for message management
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-filtering messages through keyword matching before delivery. Messages are screened in advance based on keyword compatibility between the message content and user profile, so users receive only relevant messages and don't need to perform deletion operations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables self-service by automatically managing message filtering and delivery based on keyword matching. The system serves itself by comparing keywords and making delivery decisions without requiring user intervention for message management or deletion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Method, system and device for acquiring directionally published microblog messages are disclosed. A first client acquires an instruction for reading a microblog message from a first user, wherein the instruction comprises a keyword of the first user; the first client extracts directionally published microblog messages matching with the keyword of the first user from an outbox of a second user, wherein the second user is followed the first user and has a directional publishing authority; and the first terminal displays the extracted directionally published microblog messages to the first user. Through the solutions provided the present disclosure, a first user only needs to access an outbox of a second user for acquiring a microblog message, and thus the first user does not need to delete the microblog message. The operation of the first user is simplified, and thereby the user experience will be improved.
