Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional information sharing technologies face issues with unsmooth or unclear display of shared screens due to the use of a single sharing method for all files, which fails to meet the personalized needs of different files and network conditions, affecting user experience.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for sharing information that determines a sharing strategy based on attribute information of the file-for-sharing, such as storage address, format, and server type, to match the file with an appropriate sharing strategy, ensuring smooth and clear sharing within a preset range.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a single sharing method is used for all files, then the system complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but the adaptability to different file types and network conditions deteriorates, resulting in unsmooth or unclear display

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidadaptability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic sharing strategies that automatically adjust based on file attributes (format, size, type) and network conditions. The system transitions from a static single-method approach to a dynamic multi-method approach, selecting optimal sharing protocols (e.g., compression, format conversion, bandwidth adjustment) in real-time to resolve the contradiction between operational simplicity and adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes key parameters of the sharing process based on file characteristics and network status. This includes adjusting compression ratios, selecting different transmission protocols, and modifying quality settings dynamically. By changing these parameters adaptively, the system maintains ease of operation while achieving high adaptability to various file types and network conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Device complexity

If a single sharing method is used for all files, then the device complexity is reduced, but the sharing quality and user experience deteriorate due to inability to meet personalized needs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice complexityVSAvoidsharing quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the file sharing process into multiple independent modules, each handling specific file types or network conditions. Instead of one complex monolithic system, the patent creates specialized sub-systems for different scenarios (e.g., image optimization module, video compression module, low-bandwidth protocol module). This segmentation reduces overall device complexity while improving sharing quality through specialized handling.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary layer (sharing strategy selection module) that sits between the file source and transmission channel. This intermediary analyzes file attributes and network conditions, then selects or configures appropriate sharing methods. This mediator approach allows the system to maintain low device complexity at each component while achieving high overall sharing quality through intelligent coordination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Adaptability or versatility

If conventional information sharing technologies are used, then information interaction is supported, but the display smoothness and clarity deteriorate due to lack of personalized sharing strategies

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoiddisplay smoothness
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSSpeed

Solution Approach 1:

The patent performs preliminary analysis of file attributes (format, size, resolution, type) before the actual sharing process begins. Based on this pre-analysis, the system pre-configures optimal sharing strategies, including pre-compression, pre-formatting, and pre-selected transmission protocols. This preliminary action ensures that when sharing begins, the display smoothness and clarity are already optimized, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and speed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

An information sharing method, an apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: determining, in response to a file sharing request initiated by a sharing party, a file-for-sharing corresponding to the file sharing request; determining a sharing strategy for the file-for-sharing, including determining the sharing strategy for the file-for-sharing based on attribute information of the file-for-sharing, where the attribute information comprises a storage address; and sharing, based on the sharing strategy, the file-for-sharing to preset clients participating in sharing. In the method, the sharing strategy for the file-for-sharing is based on based on the storage address of the file in response to the storage address being a cloud address.
