Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple applications are simultaneously executed on a device, then the device can process various types of information and provide diverse functions, but it becomes difficult for users to easily select relevant applications and functions from among the simultaneously executed applications
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the application selection process by introducing interest objects that represent specific user interests or contexts. Instead of presenting all applications at once, the system divides them into categories based on their association with different interest objects, making selection more manageable and intuitive.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces interest objects as intermediary elements between users and applications. These interest objects serve as mediators that automatically match user interests with relevant applications and functions, eliminating the need for users to manually search through multiple applications.
2Reliability
If users manually search and select applications from multiple running applications, then they can find relevant applications, but it consumes time and reduces information retrieval efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-establishing associations between interest objects, applications, and functions. The system proactively matches user interests with relevant applications before users need to select them, so when users express interest in a particular object, the corresponding application is already identified and ready for execution.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the system continuously monitors user interactions and interest expressions, then automatically adjusts application recommendations. The system provides feedback loops that refine the matching between interest objects and applications based on usage patterns and user preferences.
3Productivity
If the system automatically matches interest objects with applications using metadata, then application selection becomes efficient, but the system complexity increases due to metadata processing and matching algorithms
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates universal interest objects that can represent multiple types of user interests across different applications. These interest objects serve multiple functions: they can represent users, locations, media, or keywords, and can be associated with various applications depending on the context, reducing the need for application-specific selection mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes parameter changes in metadata to dynamically adjust application matching. By monitoring changes in metadata parameters such as user preferences, location data, or context information, the system automatically updates the matching between interest objects and applications without requiring complex reconfiguration.
Data Source
AI summary
A method and device for executing an application include operations of displaying an interest object on a screen of the device, in response to selection of the interest object, obtaining metadata matched with the interest object, determining an associated application associated with the interest object, executing the associated application by using the metadata as an input value to the associated application, and displaying, on the screen, a window indicating an execution result of the associated application executed by using the metadata.
