Solution Overview

Problem

Existing dashboard systems for business enterprises are cumbersome and inefficient, requiring users to navigate through multiple static dashboards to debug errors, as they fail to provide dynamic and customized layouts tailored to user requirements, leading to increased complexity and time wastage.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for dynamically rendering a dashboard layout based on user profiles, including authentication credentials, user roles, and widget scores, to selectively display relevant widgets that aid in quick error debugging and issue resolution.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple static dashboards are used to monitor different business operations, then comprehensive data monitoring is achieved, but user complexity and time to resolve errors increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata monitoring coverageVSAvoiddashboard navigation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple static dashboards into a single dynamic dashboard that can adapt its layout based on user roles and error contexts. The system merges the functionality of multiple dashboards by selecting and displaying relevant widgets dynamically, eliminating the need for users to navigate between separate dashboards while maintaining comprehensive monitoring coverage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The dashboard transitions from static to dynamic by automatically adjusting its layout, widget selection, and organization based on real-time factors such as user role, error type, and business context. This dynamic adaptation allows the same dashboard to serve multiple monitoring purposes without increasing user complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Reliability

If multiple static dashboards are used to monitor different business operations, then comprehensive data monitoring is achieved, but time to resolve errors increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata monitoring coverageVSAvoiderror resolution time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring and pre-organizing dashboard widgets based on user roles and error types before the user needs to resolve an error. When an error occurs, the dashboard is already structured to prioritize relevant information, eliminating the time users would otherwise spend navigating through multiple dashboards to find the relevant monitoring data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The dashboard incorporates feedback mechanisms that detect error conditions and automatically adjust the dashboard layout to highlight relevant widgets and information. This feedback-driven adaptation ensures that when errors occur, the dashboard immediately reorganizes to provide the most useful monitoring data for rapid error resolution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Ease of operation

If dashboards are customized to specific user requirements, then ease of operation improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedashboard usabilityVSAvoiddashboard configuration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The dashboard system provides self-service customization by automatically adapting its layout and widget selection based on user role and error context without requiring manual configuration. The system serves itself by detecting user needs and autonomously organizing the dashboard accordingly, eliminating the complexity of manual dashboard configuration while maintaining high usability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
