Information Updating Server Content Relevance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In information providing systems, updating content is inefficient due to a lack of precise understanding of which information is used by which user groups, leading to ineffective updates.
Innovation Solution
An information providing system that includes an information management server and terminal devices capable of sharing and analyzing user information to specify which parts of the content are used, allowing for targeted updates without overloading the management server, utilizing a peer-to-peer network to share content and user data.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If the information management server transmits all provided information to all terminal devices, then complete information coverage is achieved, but server load increases and information updating efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides provided information into multiple parts and transmits only the necessary parts to terminal devices based on user group characteristics. The information management server segments information by user group (e.g., young users, adult users) and transmits relevant parts to specific groups, avoiding unnecessary information transmission to all devices and reducing server load while maintaining effective information coverage.
2Measurement precision
If the information management server collects user information from all terminal devices, then precise user analysis is achieved, but server load increases
Solution Approach 1:
Terminal devices autonomously acquire user information from local storage and transmit only necessary user group identification information to the information management server. The system enables terminal devices to self-manage their own information and perform local analysis, reducing the burden on the server while maintaining precise user analysis capabilities through distributed processing.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system updates all provided information for all user groups, then comprehensive content update is achieved, but unnecessary updates are made reducing efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The system updates provided information differently for different user groups based on their specific characteristics and needs. Instead of uniform updates for all users, the information management server applies localized update strategies tailored to each user group (e.g., young users vs. adult users), making updates more efficient by avoiding unnecessary changes for groups that don't need them while maintaining comprehensive coverage where needed.

AI summary
Provided is an information providing system that is capable of precisely grasping actual situations of use of provided information and effectively updating the provided information. A space management server (12) includes a unit for transmitting a part of space information indicating a structure of virtual 3-dimensional space to a user device (28). The user device (28) includes a unit for receiving the part of the space information, a unit for sharing the part of the space information with another user device (28), a unit for acquiring user information of the other information terminal device, and a unit for outputting the acquired user information and part specifying information for specifying the part of the space information.
