Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If electronic database is stored remotely on a database server, then network connectivity is required for searching, but this exposes security risks and requires continuous high-speed network connection

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesearch accessibilityVSAvoidnetwork security risks
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the database system into distributed local copies across multiple computing devices rather than a centralized remote server. Each device stores a portion of the database locally, enabling independent searching without continuous network connectivity while maintaining data availability through the distributed architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The database is pre-distributed to local computing devices before searching is needed. This preliminary action of copying data to local storage eliminates the need for real-time network connectivity during search operations, thereby reducing security risks associated with continuous network exposure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Object-affected harmful factors

If electronic database is stored locally on computing devices, then network security is improved and offline access is enabled, but this requires significant hard disk space

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork security risksVSAvoidhard disk space requirement
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSVolume of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The database is divided into multiple segments distributed across different computing devices. Each device stores only a portion of the overall database, reducing the storage burden on individual devices while maintaining collective access to the complete dataset through the distributed network when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different computing devices store different portions of the database based on their local storage capacity and search requirements. This local quality approach allows each device to optimize its storage allocation while contributing to the overall distributed database system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Measurement precision

If search is performed over electronic databases containing millions of data entries, then comprehensive search results are obtained, but this requires large amounts of computer resources including RAM and processing power

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesearch result completenessVSAvoidcomputational resources
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSPower

Solution Approach 1:

The search process is segmented and distributed across multiple computing devices. Each device performs searching on its local database portion independently, dividing the overall computational workload. This segmentation reduces the processing power and RAM requirements for each individual device while maintaining comprehensive search coverage across the entire distributed database.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
