Solution Overview

Problem

Current web page technologies lack the ability to dynamically generate content based on user-specific contextual profiles, limiting personalization and functionality changes across different users, with static content structures failing to adapt to individual user interactions and transaction histories.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of dynamic content generation techniques that utilize user transaction histories, interactions, and account information to create personalized and modular content modules, altering the layout and functionality of web pages based on contextual user profiles, allowing for customized display areas and content modules for each user.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If static HTML pages are used to construct web pages, then the page structure is simple and easy to maintain, but the content cannot be dynamically generated based on user-specific contextual profiles

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedynamic content generation capabilityVSAvoidpage structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments web page content into modular templates that can be independently configured and assembled. Different content modules (headers, navigation, product displays, footers) are separated into reusable template components that can be dynamically selected and combined based on user profiles, allowing complex personalized pages to be built from simple modular elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces dynamic parameters and variables into the HTML template structure, allowing page content to change based on user context. Templates include placeholders and conditional logic that automatically adjust content display based on user-specific profiles, transaction histories, and interaction data, transforming static pages into adaptive experiences.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Speed

If manual updates are used to change web page content, then the implementation is simple and direct, but the response time is slow and cannot adapt to real-time user interactions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent update speedVSAvoidautomated content generation
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent pre-configures multiple content templates with different layouts, styles, and functional elements during the design phase. These templates are stored and ready for immediate deployment, allowing the system to quickly assemble personalized pages by selecting and populating appropriate templates with user-specific data rather than creating content from scratch in real-time.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements automated template selection and content assembly systems that automatically match user profiles with appropriate page templates based on transaction histories, interaction patterns, and contextual data. The system self-adjusts content presentation without manual intervention, using algorithms to select optimal templates and populate them with relevant user-specific information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Adaptability or versatility

If the same web page version is displayed to all users, then the server resource consumption is low and the system is simple, but the user personalization and engagement are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser personalization capabilityVSAvoidserver resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates universal template structures that serve multiple user segments simultaneously. A single template framework can be configured to serve different user types (new users, returning users, premium members, etc.) by adjusting parameters and content selections, allowing the system to personalize for diverse user groups using a unified underlying structure that reduces server processing overhead.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

Dynamic web content personalization may be used to alter a web page such that two different people who view that web page do not see the exact same content on that page. The present disclosure includes techniques that allow a web page to be structured, via underlying source code, so that content can be dynamically generated based on a user transaction history. Further, dynamic content customization can effectively change the layout and functionality of a web page in ways not previously contemplated. For example, different control elements may become accessible based on a particular contextual user profile assigned to a user based on a transaction history. Modular content modules may also have a different appearance for different users.
