Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The process of manually adding multiple members to an internet conversation group is time-consuming, affecting work efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for adding group members that involves obtaining and parsing a target document containing user information, allowing multiple users to be added to a group simultaneously based on this information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual selection method is used to add members to a group, then each member can be added individually with confirmation, but the time consumption increases significantly when adding multiple members
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by obtaining user information in advance from various sources (contacts, social media, documents) and storing it in a candidate list. When adding members to a group, the system directly selects from this pre-prepared list, eliminating the need for real-time manual search and selection, thus reducing time consumption while maintaining accuracy through pre-validated information.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates copies of user information from existing data sources (contact lists, social media profiles, imported documents) and stores these copies in a candidate member list. This allows batch processing of multiple users without repeatedly accessing original sources, significantly reducing time consumption while maintaining data accuracy through systematic copying and validation.
2Ease of operation
If manual selection is required for each member, then user control over addition process is maintained, but work efficiency decreases when handling large numbers of members
Solution Approach 1:
The member addition process is segmented into distinct phases: obtaining user information from sources, storing in candidate list, selecting candidates for addition, and final confirmation. This segmentation allows the system to automate information gathering and presentation (improving ease of operation) while enabling batch processing of multiple users (improving productivity), with user control maintained at critical decision points.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a universal member addition framework that handles multiple user information sources (contacts, social media, imported documents), multiple addition scenarios (single user, batch users, invited users), and multiple confirmation modes (individual confirmation, batch confirmation). This multi-functional approach maintains user control across diverse scenarios while enabling efficient batch processing to improve productivity.
3Device complexity
If no automated method is used, then system complexity remains low, but the time consumption for adding multiple members becomes excessive
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary candidate member list that bridges between raw user information from various sources and the final group member addition. This intermediary structure automates the information aggregation, validation, and presentation processes, significantly reducing time consumption for batch member addition while maintaining manageable system complexity through a clear, modular architecture.
4Productivity
If batch addition without manual selection is implemented, then work efficiency improves significantly, but user control and confirmation accuracy may be reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback mechanisms at multiple stages: presenting candidate member lists for user review before batch addition, providing confirmation options for batch operations, and enabling correction of selection errors. This feedback loop maintains high accuracy by allowing user verification and correction while preserving the efficiency benefits of batch processing through streamlined confirmation workflows.
Data Source
AI summary
The present disclosure discloses a method for adding group members. When the first user needs to add a new member to the target group in the instant messaging system, in response to triggering of a first user, an imported target document is obtained, and the target document includes user information of one or more second users in an instant messaging system. After obtaining the target document, the target document is parsed to obtain user information of one or more second users included in the target document in the instant messaging system. After obtaining the user information through parsing, the one or more second users will be added to the target group in the instant messaging system based on the user information.
