Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional image sorting methods are used, then data sorting can be performed, but the sorting method does not adapt to the specific features of different storage services
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by customizing the sorting method according to the specific features of each storage service. Different storage services have different characteristics (e.g., cloud storage, local storage, network storage), and the system determines appropriate sorting methods locally for each storage service type rather than using a universal approach. This enables the sorting method to be optimized for each storage service's specific requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamics by making the sorting method adjustable and adaptable based on storage service features. The system dynamically selects and modifies sorting methods according to the detected characteristics of the target storage service, allowing the sorting behavior to change flexibly rather than being fixed. This dynamic adjustment ensures the sorting method remains suitable as storage service features vary.
2Reliability
If a detailed sorting method adapted to each storage service feature is implemented, then image sorting suitability is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary approach by using a transfer apparatus that mediates between the terminal and storage service. This transfer apparatus handles the complexity of determining and implementing storage-service-specific sorting methods, shielding the user from these complexities. The intermediary absorbs the complexity of adapting to different storage services while providing simple, unified access to users.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-determining and pre-configuring sorting methods for different storage service types. Rather than determining sorting methods in real-time during each transfer operation, the system pre-establishes the appropriate sorting methods based on storage service characteristics, reducing the computational and operational complexity during actual data transfer.
