Graphics Command Capture for Automatic Setting Registration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In group settings, users face challenges in efficiently managing and sharing settings for application software and shared resources, leading to increased workload for administrators and delayed distribution of settings to group members due to varying software versions and specific settings requirements.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system that captures graphics processing commands from application software, registers completed work in a database, and retrieves information for ongoing tasks based on captured commands, allowing users to leverage completed work for their own tasks, thereby streamlining settings management and sharing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a predetermined person in charge registers setting data in a database beforehand, then the setting data can be stored and shared, but the administrative load increases and it becomes difficult to immediately release setting data to group members
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables users to automatically register their own setting data by capturing graphics processing commands during normal operations. Users don't need to manually register settings - the system does it automatically when users complete work, allowing the database to be populated with diverse setting data without increasing administrative burden
Solution Approach 2:
The system captures and registers setting data automatically when users complete their work, making the data available immediately for other users. This eliminates the delay inherent in manual registration by predetermined personnel, as settings are released to the group immediately upon completion by any user
2Adaptability or versatility
If each user makes settings by themselves when default settings are not available, then unique settings can be achieved, but time and manpower are consumed
Solution Approach 1:
The system captures the graphics processing commands that users execute during setting operations and stores them in the database. Other users can then retrieve and copy these captured command sequences, allowing them to replicate successful settings without manually performing the same time-consuming operations
Solution Approach 2:
Users automatically capture and register their own setting operations as they perform them. This creates a self-populating knowledge base where setting information is generated by users themselves during normal work, eliminating the need for dedicated administrators to document and distribute settings
3Ease of operation
If a predetermined person in charge performs all setting operations ahead of others, then centralized control is achieved, but the load of the person in charge is increased
Solution Approach 1:
The system distributes the setting operation burden from centralized administrators to all users. Each user's setting operations are automatically captured and registered by their own system, eliminating the need for one person to perform all setting operations manually
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides automatic feedback loops where setting operations are captured, registered in the database, and made available for retrieval. This creates a self-sustaining system where successful operations automatically become available to others, reducing the need for centralized coordination

AI summary
An information processor for information registration, capturing means captures a graphics processing command, and database registering means registers, as information about completed work in the database, information about a series of graphics processing commands concerning completed works out of the captured graphics processing commands. In an information processor for information retrieval, proceeding work detecting means detects a work in progress as a proceeding work based on the captured graphics processing command, and information acquiring means searches a database for the information about the work in progress which has been done before based on the graphics processing command concerning the proceeding work and acquires the information about the work in progress which has been done before.
