Display Management Device for Occupancy Rate Optimization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Content providers face difficulties in efficiently occupying a certain rate or more of displays in a specific region for enhanced content delivery, as they need to negotiate with multiple administrators and manage available display times manually, increasing the load on display management systems.
Innovation Solution
A display management device and method that acquires occupancy request information, generates available time display data showing the number and rate of reservable displays for simultaneous display, and transmits this data to a terminal, allowing content providers to select optimal regions and time periods for content delivery, thereby reducing administrative burdens and increasing occupancy rates.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If content providers negotiate with multiple administrators manually to occupy displays, then occupancy rate can be improved, but administrative burden and system load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a display management device as an intermediary system that automatically matches content providers with available displays. This mediator handles the negotiation process by comparing occupancy requests against stored display information and availability conditions, eliminating the need for manual negotiations between content providers and multiple administrators, thus resolving the contradiction between achieving high occupancy rates and reducing administrative burden
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service automation where the display management device automatically processes occupancy requests by comparing them with stored display data and availability conditions. The automatic matching and selection processes perform tasks that would otherwise require manual administrative intervention, allowing the system to serve itself in managing display occupancy without increasing administrative burden
2Adaptability or versatility
If manual management of available display times is performed, then flexibility can be maintained, but system load and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-storing display information and availability conditions in the display management device before occupancy requests are made. This advance preparation of data allows the system to quickly process requests without time-consuming manual management, while the stored conditions maintain the necessary flexibility for different scenarios
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses parameter changes by storing various availability conditions (such as occupancy rates, time periods, and display specifications) that can be automatically adjusted based on requests. This allows flexible adaptation to different occupancy scenarios while the automated parameter comparison and selection processes eliminate time-consuming manual management
3Productivity
If occupancy requests are processed without automated matching, then system simplicity is maintained, but occupancy efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the display management device automatically compares occupancy requests with stored display information and availability conditions, then provides matching results back to content providers. This automated feedback loop improves occupancy efficiency by quickly identifying suitable displays without requiring complex manual processing or increasing overall system complexity
Data Source
AI summary
A display management device includes an acquisitioner and a data processor. The acquisitioner acquires occupancy request information from a first terminal. The occupancy request information indicates that a request is made to display content on a plurality of displays positioned in a first region. When the acquisitioner acquires the occupancy request information, the data processor generates a available time display data using a display information storage and transmits same to the first terminal. The display information storage stores information relating to available time of the plurality of displays positioned in the first region. The available time display data is data for displaying a screen which shows availability information including the number of displays which can be reserved and/or the occupancy rate thereof for each time period.
