Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional network management technologies employ static and global configurations for operating parameters, which are inadequate for dynamic changes in device performance, leading to inefficient resource management and suboptimal performance in communication networks.
Innovation Solution
A method that identifies communication devices within a network, obtains their operating parameters in real-time, applies these parameters to predictive models to forecast performance, and adjusts parameters such as congestion control schemes dynamically based on thresholds to optimize network performance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If static and global configurations are used for operating parameters, then network management is simplified, but performance optimization for individual devices and time instances deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic parameter configuration where the network management system continuously monitors device performance metrics and automatically adjusts operating parameters in real-time based on current network conditions, device states, and performance requirements, transforming static configurations into adaptive dynamic configurations
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by customizing operating parameters for individual devices based on their specific characteristics, performance metrics, and local network conditions, rather than applying uniform global configurations to all devices, thereby optimizing performance at the device level
2Productivity
If a single parameter value is optimized for one device, then performance for that device improves, but applicability to other devices deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent utilizes parameter changes by maintaining multiple sets of operating parameters with different values and characteristics, selecting and applying appropriate parameter sets based on real-time assessment of device performance, network conditions, and device-specific requirements, enabling both optimization and adaptability
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically selects and adjusts parameter values based on current device performance metrics and network conditions, allowing the same parameter to take different values for different devices or at different times, thus achieving both performance optimization and broad applicability
3Productivity
If parameter adjustments are made frequently to optimize performance, then network efficiency improves, but system complexity and overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the network management system continuously monitors device performance metrics, compares actual performance against target thresholds, and triggers parameter adjustments only when performance degradation is detected, creating a closed-loop control system that balances optimization with complexity management
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies partial action by making selective parameter adjustments only for devices exhibiting performance issues rather than uniformly adjusting parameters across the entire network, thereby achieving necessary optimization while minimizing system complexity and overhead
