Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If graphic digital documents are resized to adapt to varying display dimensions, then adaptability to different display mediums is improved, but graphic display rules are not maintained and communication coherence is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by systematically transforming the graphic document using mathematical parameters including scaling factors for size adjustment, translation vectors for position changes, and rotation angles for orientation. These parameter transformations are applied hierarchically to different document components while maintaining their relative relationships, thus adapting to various display dimensions while preserving graphic display rules.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal resizing system that can handle multiple display formats and dimensions through a single set of transformation rules. The system defines a reference display format and establishes transformation relationships that can be applied to any target display dimension, making the solution universally applicable across different media while maintaining communication coherence.
2Manufacturing precision
If experts manually resize graphic digital documents to respect graphic rules, then graphic display rules precision is improved, but production cost increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service by enabling automated resizing of graphic digital documents through computer-executable instructions that automatically calculate transformation parameters and apply them to maintain graphic display rules. This eliminates the need for expert manual intervention while preserving precision, as the system autonomously handles the resizing process according to predefined rules and transformation relationships.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical system of manual expert resizing with an automated computational system. Instead of relying on human experts to manually adjust and reposition graphic elements, the system uses algorithmic calculations to determine transformation parameters (scaling, translation, rotation) and automatically applies them, substituting human labor with automated processing while maintaining or improving precision.
3Ease of manufacture
If automated resizing is implemented without expert intervention, then production cost is reduced, but graphic display rules are not maintained
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-defining the transformation parameters and graphic display rules before the actual resizing operation. The system establishes reference display formats, defines transformation relationships in advance, and prepares the computational framework that will automatically maintain graphic rules during resizing. This preliminary setup enables cost-effective automated resizing while ensuring precision is maintained throughout the process.
