Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing computational platforms face inefficiencies in generating and managing domain-specific user interfaces due to the generic nature of standard interfaces, leading to difficulties in configuring and interacting with decision assets, and the need for customization of software across various applications and platforms.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for generating configuration packages that include a domain view tailored to a specific domain, comprising a view specification of assets, organization, terminology, and relationships, and allowing for user interface rendering based on context, with capabilities to manage recursive and versioned configuration packages.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If standard generic user interfaces are used in computational platforms, then device complexity is reduced and ease of manufacture is improved, but domain-specific usability and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The user interface is segmented into domain-specific components that can be independently configured and assembled. The system divides the interface into modular elements that reflect specific domain concepts and relationships, allowing each segment to be optimized for its particular domain while maintaining overall system coherence.
Solution Approach 2:
The interface implements local quality by providing domain-specific visual representations, terminology, and interaction patterns in different regions or contexts of the interface. Each domain area presents customized elements appropriate to its specific purpose while maintaining consistency with the overall platform design.
2Adaptability or versatility
If software is customized for specific domains and users, then adaptability and ease of operation improve, but device complexity and difficulty of manufacture increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-defining domain views, asset configurations, and interface templates that can be selectively applied to different domains. These pre-configured elements capture common domain-specific patterns and relationships, reducing the customization effort required for new domains while maintaining high adaptability.
Solution Approach 2:
The interface framework implements universality by designing a multi-functional system that can serve multiple domains through a common set of configurable components. The same underlying infrastructure supports different domain views, asset types, and interaction patterns, allowing one system to adapt to various domains without requiring separate customizations for each.
3Productivity
If domain-specific user interfaces are generated and managed, then ease of operation and adaptability improve, but device complexity and loss of time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-configuring domain views, asset relationships, and interface templates that can be rapidly deployed. Common domain patterns and configurations are established in advance, allowing new domain-specific interfaces to be generated quickly by selecting and instantiating pre-defined templates rather than creating everything from scratch.
Solution Approach 2:
The interface system implements copying by allowing domain views and configurations to be replicated and reused across different contexts. Once a domain-specific interface is created and validated, it can be copied and adapted for similar domains, significantly reducing the time required to generate new domain-specific interfaces while maintaining consistency and quality.

AI summary
Provided herein is a computer-implemented method for providing a user interface in a platform, the method comprising generating, via a definer, a domain view for a capability of the platform, wherein the domain view is tailored to a domain and comprises a view specification of assets specific to the domain, wherein the view specification comprises a composition, organization, terminology, and relationships of the assets specific to the domain; storing, by one or more processors of the platform, the domain view in a configuration repository; and rendering, by a renderer, the domain view to present a user interface to a user to solicit user responses to one or more of configurations of the assets, wherein the user interface is rendered based on a context of use.
