Solution Overview

Problem

Existing event management systems lack a simple user interface and effective interaction control between participants and devices, making it difficult for event creators and participants to easily manage and interact within events.

Innovation Solution

An event management system utilizing an API database and event database with an API registration processing unit, event creation processing unit, and communication processing unit, which employs a 'member scope' to control interactions between participants and devices, allowing for easy event creation and participation, and providing advanced interaction control through attribute management and scenario execution.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If an event management system is designed with comprehensive management functions, then the system's functionality and control capability are improved, but the user interface complexity and ease of operation deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveevent management functionalityVSAvoiduser interface simplicity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments event management into standardized scenarios that can be independently selected and configured. Each scenario represents a modular functional unit that can be combined to create comprehensive event management capabilities while presenting a simplified interface to users through scenario-based selection rather than exposing individual management functions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces scenario definitions as an intermediary layer between the user and the complex event management system. Scenarios act as pre-configured templates that mediate between user intentions and system functions, allowing users to select high-level scenarios rather than directly managing complex individual functions, thus simplifying the interface while maintaining comprehensive functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system provides detailed interaction control between participants, then the interaction management capability is improved, but the device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction control capabilityVSAvoidsystem structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments interaction control into participant scope definitions that separate the control logic from the underlying system complexity. By defining scopes at the participant level rather than implementing complex permission matrices, the system achieves detailed interaction control while maintaining simpler system architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic scope assignment where participant scopes can be flexibly configured and changed during event execution. This dynamic approach allows detailed interaction control adaptability without requiring complex static permission structures, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining high control capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Reliability

If event management functions are hard-coded in the server, then the system reliability is improved, but the adaptability and reusability across different events deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem stabilityVSAvoidevent reusability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary configuration by defining reusable scenario templates and participant scope definitions before events are executed. These pre-defined structures are stored in the database and can be reliably executed across multiple events, providing both system reliability through standardized processes and adaptability through template reusability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates universal scenario definitions and scope templates that can be applied across different event types and contexts. Rather than hard-coding event-specific logic, the system uses universal templates that can be configured for various events, improving reusability while maintaining reliability through consistent execution of standardized templates.

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

4Stability of the object's composition

If the system uses traditional event management architecture, then the implementation stability is improved, but the cost-effectiveness and flexibility deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveimplementation stabilityVSAvoidcost-effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments event management into reusable scenario templates and scope definitions that can be independently developed, tested, and deployed. This segmentation allows stable core functions to be implemented once and reused across multiple events, improving cost-effectiveness while maintaining implementation stability through standardized modular components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements copying and reusing of scenario templates and scope definitions across different events. Rather than re-implementing event management logic for each event, the system copies proven templates and adapts them, reducing development costs and improving efficiency while maintaining stable, tested implementations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying
