Gateway Data Setting Automation for Selective Transmission
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies require manual user intervention to determine and set data transmission settings in gateway devices, leading to a significant burden when handling large amounts of data, which can increase communication traffic and reduce efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A transmission data setting support program that automates the generation of data transmission setting information by reading extraction rules, adding relevant data to the setting information, and displaying it for user confirmation, thereby reducing manual effort.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual user selection of transmission data is used, then data transmission settings can be customized according to user needs, but user burden increases significantly when handling large amounts of data
Solution Approach 1:
The gateway device automatically generates data transmission setting information by extracting data names from collected data and determining transmission destinations based on device types, enabling the system to serve itself without requiring manual user configuration for each data item
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary classification and organization of collected data by device type before transmission setting generation, pre-grouping data so that transmission settings can be automatically determined based on these pre-established categories
2Reliability
If all collected data is transmitted to external devices, then complete data availability is achieved, but communication traffic increases excessively
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the necessary data names from the collected data based on device types and transmission destinations, transmitting only the extracted relevant data rather than all collected data, thereby reducing communication traffic while maintaining data availability
Solution Approach 2:
Different transmission settings are applied to different data based on their source device types, with each data item receiving customized transmission treatment appropriate to its specific characteristics and destination requirements
3Productivity
If data transmission settings are manually configured for each data item, then precise control over transmission is achieved, but time consumption increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The manual mechanical process of selecting and configuring each data item is replaced by an automated information processing system that reads device types, determines transmission destinations, and generates setting information through automated data extraction and rule-based processing
Data Source
AI summary
A transmission data setting support program causes a computer to execute a first rule reading step, a transmission data extracting step, a data adding step, and a displaying step. The first rule reading step reads a transmission data extraction rule that is a rule defining a condition for extracting, from collected data, transmission data, using attribute information indicating characteristics of data. The transmission data is data to be transmitted to an external device. The collected data is data collected from devices. The transmission data extracting step extracts data satisfying the transmission data extraction rule, as transmission data, from data collection setting information including setting of the computer for collecting collected data from the devices. The data adding step adds the extracted data to data transmission setting information including a condition for transmission of the transmission data to the external device.
