Solution Overview

Problem

The existing process of integrating a new gaming engine into a gaming services platform is complex and prone to errors, requiring manual selection and configuration, which can lead to suboptimal performance and user experience due to the need for developers to learn multiple interfaces and manage independent communication channels.

Innovation Solution

A system and method that utilizes a gaming services interface (GSI) to facilitate the integration of new gaming engines by modifying their source code using machine learning models to conform to the GSI, allowing for automatic modification and compilation, and analyzing performance metrics to improve user experience and engine performance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If manual selection and configuration of gaming engines is used, then developers can customize engine integration, but the integration process becomes complex and error-prone

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of engine integrationVSAvoidintegration process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service integration by allowing gaming engines to automatically register themselves with the platform through standardized interfaces. The engine submission module receives engine information from developers and automatically configures the engine on the platform without requiring manual intervention, thereby reducing integration complexity while maintaining ease of manufacture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a universal gaming services interface that enables multiple gaming engines to interact with the platform through a single standardized interface. This multi-functional interface handles various operations such as engine submission, configuration, and performance monitoring, simplifying the integration process while reducing errors associated with manual configuration of multiple separate interfaces.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If developers manage multiple independent communication channels for different gaming engines, then engine-specific functionality is maintained, but user experience deteriorates due to the need to learn multiple interfaces

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveengine-specific functionalityVSAvoidease of use
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The gaming services interface serves as a universal communication channel that handles multiple functions including engine submission, configuration, performance monitoring, and user interaction. This single interface maintains engine-specific functionality through standardized commands while providing a consistent user experience, eliminating the need for developers to learn multiple independent communication channels.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The gaming services interface acts as an intermediary between the platform and multiple gaming engines, translating engine-specific operations into standardized commands. This mediator layer preserves the unique functionality of each engine while presenting a unified interface to users, thereby maintaining adaptability while improving ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Device complexity

If standardized gaming services interface is implemented, then integration process is simplified, but customization capability for specific engines is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveintegration process complexityVSAvoidengine customization capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the integration process into distinct modules: a standardized gaming services interface for common operations, and engine-specific configuration modules for customization. This segmentation allows the standardized interface to simplify the overall integration process while preserving customization capability through dedicated configuration modules that can be applied to specific engines as needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements dynamic configuration capabilities that allow the standardized gaming services interface to adapt to engine-specific requirements. The configuration can be modified at runtime based on the specific engine being integrated, enabling the system to maintain standardization benefits while providing customization capability when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
