Automated Document Viewing via Message String Analysis
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face an operational burden when they need to perform actions based on requests or instructions included in messages accompanying electronic documents, such as viewing specific pages or related documents, as they must manually execute these requests.
Innovation Solution
A computer-readable medium and method that analyzes character strings in messages accompanying electronic documents, allowing for automated processing and viewing of the documents based on the analysis, reducing the user's operational burden by enabling automatic execution of requests, such as displaying specific pages or documents, through a document management system that includes a processor, database, and user terminals.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a message includes a request for the reader to perform an operation (e.g., viewing a specific page or document), then the message can convey specific instructions, but the reader must manually perform the operation, increasing operational burden
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables automatic execution of operations based on message content. The information processing apparatus automatically performs actions such as opening documents or navigating to specific pages by analyzing the message character strings, eliminating the need for manual reader intervention while preserving complete message information delivery
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical operations (reader clicking, opening, navigating) with automated information processing. The system analyzes message text and automatically executes corresponding document viewing operations, substituting human manual actions with automated computational processes
2Measurement precision
If the reader manually performs operations based on messages, then precise control over document viewing is achieved, but time is lost due to manual intervention
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis of message content to pre-determine the required operations. By analyzing the character strings in advance and preparing the corresponding document viewing actions, the system eliminates delays associated with manual interpretation and execution, achieving both precise control and time efficiency
3Extent of automation
If automated processing is implemented based on message analysis, then operational burden is reduced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an information processing apparatus as an intermediary between the message and the document management system. This intermediary component analyzes message character strings and translates them into automated operations, providing a modular solution that achieves automation without requiring complex integration across the entire system
