Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If blockchain technology is used to improve data redundancy and transparency, then data security and accessibility are enhanced, but computational overheads associated with cryptographic operations increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments data into two categories: hashed identifiers stored on the blockchain ledger and actual data values stored in centralized databases. This segmentation allows the system to maintain security benefits of blockchain (through hash verification) while avoiding the computational overhead of storing all data on-chain, thus resolving the contradiction between data security and computational overhead.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts only the essential security-critical component (the hash of the data) and places it on the blockchain, while removing the computationally intensive full data storage from the blockchain. This extraction maintains the security verification capability without the associated computational burden, addressing the contradiction between reliability and energy use.
2Loss of information
If decentralized access to database ledgers is implemented, then transparency is improved, but vulnerabilities associated with public access increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different access qualities to different data components: hashed identifiers are made publicly accessible on the blockchain for transparency, while actual data values are kept in controlled centralized databases with restricted access. This local differentiation of access permissions maintains transparency where needed while minimizing vulnerabilities, resolving the contradiction between transparency and security risks.
3Speed
If centralized databases are used, then access speed is maintained, but data redundancy and transparency are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a hybrid architecture where the blockchain ledger acts as an intermediary layer between centralized databases and external systems. The blockchain stores hashed identifiers that enable verification and redundancy, while the centralized databases maintain fast access speeds for actual data. This intermediary structure resolves the contradiction by combining the redundancy benefits of distributed ledgers with the speed advantages of centralized storage.

AI summary
This disclosure describes techniques for using a blockchain network to dynamically generate and transmit communications based on data stored on distributed records. The techniques described herein may enable an automated routine to store anonymized data on a distributed record and use such ledger data to determine whether and/or how to communicate with account holders. This enables the automated routine to avoid the need to decrypt data stored on distributed records before performing computations using the ledger data. Moreover, the techniques described herein enable an automated routine to use data stored on a public distributed record as a retrieval key for accessing a private backend database. This enables the automated routine to avoid the need to perform computationally resource-intensive operations to retrieve and/or interpret backend data beyond data queries. Accordingly, various aspects of the techniques described herein improve the computational efficiency of performing blockchain-based dynamic communication.
