Information Processing Device Selective Data Acquisition
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional information reception devices receive all information pieces without selection, leading to unnecessary data transfer and delays in displaying user-selected information, causing inefficiency and user frustration due to high transmission loads.
Innovation Solution
An information processing device connected via a network with a display unit, storage unit, and communication unit, which uses screen configuration information to selectively acquire and transmit only the necessary information pieces not currently displayed, reducing the load on transmission capabilities and preventing delays.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If all information pieces are received without selection, then complete information is available for display, but transmission load increases and reception time is extended causing display delays
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by receiving and storing information pieces in advance based on screen configuration information before they are actually needed for display. When a user requests information, pre-received pieces can be displayed immediately without waiting for network transmission, thus reducing display delay while maintaining information completeness.
Solution Approach 2:
The information reception process is segmented into two phases: a preliminary phase where information is received and stored based on screen configuration, and a display phase where only needed information is transmitted and shown. This segmentation allows the system to prepare information in advance without forcing all information to be transmitted and processed simultaneously, reducing overall transmission load and display delays.
2Reliability
If all information pieces are received in advance, then information availability is maximized, but unnecessary information is also received increasing transmission load
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies local quality by receiving information selectively based on specific screen configuration information rather than uniformly receiving all possible information. Each information piece is evaluated against the screen configuration to determine if it should be pre-received, allowing the system to optimize transmission load by receiving only locally relevant information needed for specific display scenarios.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs partial action by receiving a subset of information pieces in advance based on screen configuration, rather than receiving all possible information. This partial reception strategy maintains sufficient information availability for various display needs while avoiding the excessive transmission load that would result from receiving every possible information piece.
3Adaptability or versatility
If information reception is performed without selection, then all possible information is acquired, but processing time increases reducing user-friendliness
Solution Approach 1:
By performing preliminary reception and storage of information pieces based on screen configuration, the system prepares information in advance so that when users interact with the system, the needed information is already available in storage. This eliminates processing delays during user interaction, significantly improving user-friendliness while maintaining comprehensive information coverage through the preliminary preparation phase.

AI summary
An information processing device includes: an information acquisition process control unit for selecting an information piece to be selected and sending an instruction to a communication unit; the communication unit for transmitting an information acquisition request to other information processing device connected via a network, and acquiring information from the other information processing device according to the instruction; and a storage unit storing a display amount information indicating the amount of display information which can be displayed on a display unit at once. The information acquisition process control unit instructs the communication unit to acquire more information than the amount indicated by the display amount information. This realizes an effective information acquisition and appropriate user-friendliness.
