Electronic Document Display System with Item-Position Mapping
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display systems for electronic documents on Web servers do not facilitate easy understanding of document contents, requiring users to select elements before viewing, which complicates content comprehension.
Innovation Solution
A display system that acquires bibliographic information and correspondence information to associate preset items with description positions within electronic documents, allowing for the display of content on user terminals in an easy-to-understand format, using a document content acquisition unit and display unit that utilize storage location and correspondence information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If the client selects an element from the electronic document to generate image data, then the system can display specific content, but the client cannot easily understand the contents of the electronic document
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically generating correspondence information that associates preset items with their description positions in the electronic document before user viewing. This pre-processing enables the display unit to directly present structured content without requiring users to manually select elements, thus resolving the contradiction between content understanding and operational ease
Solution Approach 2:
The correspondence information acts as an intermediary between the raw electronic document and the user interface. It maps preset items to specific description positions, enabling the system to translate unstructured document content into a structured, easy-to-understand display format without requiring user interaction for element selection
2Loss of information
If the system displays the entire electronic document, then complete information is provided, but the display becomes complex and hard to understand
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies segmentation by dividing the electronic document content into discrete units associated with preset items through correspondence information. Each item is linked to its specific description position, allowing the display unit to present segmented, organized content rather than a monolithic document, thus maintaining information completeness while reducing display complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements local quality by displaying content with different structural characteristics for different items. Each preset item receives customized presentation based on its correspondence with specific description positions in the document, enabling localized optimization of display quality for each content element while maintaining overall information completeness
