Dynamic Information Dissemination for Network Devices
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The dissemination of pricing information in order books to market participants often results in unnecessary leakage and inefficient use of computational and network resources, due to uneven latencies and transmission speeds across different networks, leading to outdated information being acted upon by some participants before others receive it.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that dynamically disseminate information to network devices by populating a data structure with values of different types, assigning delay times based on priorities, and delivering data structure information reflective of these times, ceasing delivery when the data structure is updated or values are accepted, and removing values when conditions are met, such as time or delivery to a predetermined number of devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If pricing information is disseminated to all market participants regardless of priority, then information completeness is improved, but resource efficiency deteriorates due to unnecessary dissemination to substantially more participants than reasonably necessary
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the market participant群体 into different priority levels (first priority, second priority, etc.) and disseminates pricing information to each segment at different times. High-priority participants receive information first, followed by lower-priority participants after a delay period. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by ensuring information completeness for those who need it most while avoiding wasteful dissemination to all participants simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by delivering pricing information to high-priority market participants before making it available to lower-priority participants. A delay time is assigned to each priority level, ensuring that participants with higher priority have early access to act on the information. This preliminary delivery to select participants prevents resource waste while maintaining information availability for those who require it.
2Loss of information
If pricing information is delivered to all network devices simultaneously, then information availability is improved, but resource waste increases due to different latencies and transmission speeds causing outdated information to be acted upon
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by implementing variable delay times for information delivery based on participant priority and network conditions. Instead of simultaneous delivery to all devices, the system dynamically adjusts the timing of information dissemination, assigning shorter delay times to high-priority participants and longer delay times to lower-priority participants. This dynamic approach ensures information availability while preventing waste from outdated information being acted upon.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of delivery timing by assigning different delay times to different priority levels. The delay time parameter is adjusted based on the participant's priority in the order book, creating a tiered delivery schedule. This parameter change resolves the contradiction by maintaining information availability for priority participants while avoiding the resource waste associated with simultaneous universal delivery that results in outdated information being processed.
3Device complexity
If pricing information is disseminated without priority consideration, then system simplicity is maintained, but information leakage increases and resource efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the dissemination process into priority-based groups, where participants are divided into first priority, second priority, and other levels. This segmentation prevents information leakage by ensuring that not all participants receive information simultaneously or at all. The segmented approach maintains reasonable system complexity while significantly reducing information leakage compared to universal dissemination.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by delivering information to high-priority participants before lower-priority participants. This staged delivery prevents information leakage by giving early access only to those with legitimate priority needs. The preliminary delivery mechanism maintains manageable system complexity while effectively preventing the information leakage that would occur with simultaneous universal dissemination.
Data Source
AI summary
Information may be dynamically disseminated to network devices. In some embodiments, a data structure may be populated with first-type values and second-type values, a first delay time may be assigned to a first value of the first-type values based on the first value being associated with a first priority and a second delay time may be assigned to a second value of the first-type values based on the second value being associated with a second priority, and data structure information may be obtained from the data structure. The data structure information may be delivered such that the delivery of the data structure information to a first network device associated with the first value reflects the first delay time and the delivery of the data structure information to a second network device associated with the second value reflects the second delay time.
