Solution Overview

Problem

Current transaction processing systems face inefficiencies in accessing lock attention data, leading to delays and performance issues due to the lack of effective methods for selecting optimal connection paths for transmitting lock attention interrupts and data between hosts and control units.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that identify a group of attention connection paths capable of transmitting lock attention interrupts and data, allowing for the selection of an optimal path using load balancing techniques to retrieve lock attention data, enabling faster transaction processing by selecting the least busy or available connection path.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Speed

If a single connection path is used for transmitting lock attention data, then the system structure is simple, but the transaction processing speed is reduced due to potential congestion and lack of path selection optimization

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetransaction processing speedVSAvoidconnection path management complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

SpeedVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the connection path resource by maintaining a group of multiple attention connection paths instead of using a single path. Each path can be independently selected based on current system conditions, allowing parallel usage and load distribution across multiple paths to improve transaction processing speed.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically selects from multiple attention connection paths based on real-time conditions such as path availability and load status. This dynamic selection mechanism allows the system to adapt to changing conditions and optimize transaction processing speed by choosing the most appropriate path for each operation.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If multiple attention connection paths are maintained for load balancing, then the transaction processing efficiency is improved, but the system complexity and resource requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvetransaction processing efficiencyVSAvoidpath selection mechanism complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary setup by establishing a group of attention connection paths in advance before transaction processing begins. This pre-configured group of paths is prepared and available for selection, allowing the system to immediately utilize multiple paths for load balancing without adding complexity during active transaction processing.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of time

If lock attention data is retrieved through a single connection path, then the implementation is straightforward, but wait times increase when the path is busy or unavailable

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvelock attention data retrieval wait timeVSAvoidconnection path selection flexibility

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of timeVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically selects from multiple attention connection paths based on real-time conditions such as path availability and load status. This dynamic selection mechanism allows the system to adapt to changing conditions and minimize wait times by choosing the most appropriate path for each lock attention data retrieval operation.

Inventive Principle:

AI summary

Provided are techniques for retrieving lock attention data. A group of attention connection paths configured to transmit lock attention interrupts and lock attention data between the host and the control unit are identified. A lock attention interrupt is received from the control unit. In response to receiving the lock attention interrupt, a connection path from the group of attention connection paths is selected and lock attention data is retrieved from the control unit using the selected connection path.
