Information Processing System for Execution Destination Change

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Users may not be able to recognize setting contents deleted from an execution instruction when the planned destination of an execution instruction is changed from a first execution device to a second execution device in existing information processing systems.

Innovation Solution

An information processing system with a processor that deletes setting contents from the execution instruction and controls a presenter to display the deleted setting contents to the user when the planned destination is changed, while storing common setting contents and deleting others, thereby allowing user recognition.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If setting contents are deleted from the execution instruction when the planned destination is changed, then the system adapts to the new execution device, but the user cannot recognize what settings have been deleted

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveadaptability to execution device changeVSAvoiduser awareness of deleted settings

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system provides feedback to the user by displaying information about deleted setting contents when the planned destination is changed. The presentation device shows which settings have been removed from the execution instruction, allowing the user to recognize and understand the changes made to the settings.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If all setting contents are deleted when changing execution destination, then the new device gets clean settings, but setup time increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesetting correctness for new deviceVSAvoidsetup time

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the necessary setting contents from the original execution instruction and applies them to the new execution destination. By selectively taking out and transferring only compatible settings rather than deleting all settings or copying everything, the system reduces setup time while maintaining reliability.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Loss of time

If setting contents are preserved when changing execution destination, then setup time is reduced, but incompatible settings may cause errors

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesetup timeVSAvoidsetting compatibility

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of timeVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary checking and processing of setting contents before finalizing the execution instruction for the new device. By advance identifying which settings are compatible and which need to be deleted or modified, the system ensures setting compatibility while maintaining efficiency.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

An information processing system includes a processor configured to: when a planned destination of an execution instruction that execution contents to be performed by a first execution device are set in is changed from the first execution device to a second execution device before the execution instruction is provided to the first execution device, delete setting contents set as the execution contents from the execution instruction; and perform control on a presenter to cause the presenter to present the deleted setting contents to a user.
