Solution Overview

Problem

Authoring users face challenges in targeting specific users among millions of online users, leading to inefficient use of network bandwidth as information is often disseminated through search engines, consuming significant Internet traffic and making relevant information harder to locate.

Innovation Solution

A system that tracks which intermediary user exposed a candidate user to published data by an authoring user, allowing encrypted transactions to occur directly or through a proxy only when a specific interaction occurs, reducing reliance on search engines and optimizing network efficiency by connecting authoring users with relevant target users.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of energy

If information is published online and made passively available on websites, then authoring users can reach a broad audience, but network bandwidth is wasted as information is downloaded by users who are not the actual target audience

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenetwork bandwidth consumptionVSAvoidease of locating relevant information
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces search engines as intermediary systems that actively crawl, index, and retrieve information on behalf of users. Search engine bots download and store information in databases, then serve it back to users when queries are made. This intermediary layer prevents direct wasteful downloads by end users while maintaining ease of information access through query-based retrieval.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If search engines are used to expose data to target users, then relevant information can be located efficiently, but a significant amount of Internet bandwidth is consumed servicing search requests

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveefficiency of locating relevant informationVSAvoidInternet bandwidth consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action through search engine crawling and indexing processes. Search engine bots proactively download, parse, and store information in databases before any user queries are made. This pre-processing creates an organized repository that enables rapid retrieval without requiring additional bandwidth consumption during actual information access, as the data is already cached and indexed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If authoring users publish information on social media networking websites, then information can reach a specific online community, but the information cannot be highly targeted to specific users satisfying certain criteria

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveability to target specific usersVSAvoidreach of published information
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the broad online audience into specific target segments based on criteria defined by authoring users. The system segments users according to demographics, interests, behaviors, and other attributes, then delivers published information only to relevant segments. This segmentation enables precise targeting while maintaining versatility across different user groups through the search engine's diverse user base.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

System and computer-implemented method of permitting or arbitrating encrypted electronic transactions to occur among an intermediary and an author in an electronic data system only when an interaction occurs between the author and a candidate who was exposed by the intermediary to data published by the author. The author publishes criteria about a candidate, and the candidate posts information about the candidate, which is ingested and married to personally identifiable information about the candidate. A score is calculated indicating a correlation between the candidate and the published criteria, and an intermediary exposes the candidate to the criteria, which is tracked. When the candidate completes an interaction with the author, an encrypted transaction is permitted to occur between the author and the candidate through a proxy, without the author knowing the identity of the intermediary who facilitated the introduction.
