Intermediate Computer Communication Link Ranking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In traditional computer-implemented communication link establishment, there are challenges such as incorrect or insufficient data, non-availability of communication links, and inefficiencies in identifying suitable collaboration partners, leading to increased waiting times and resource utilization.
Innovation Solution
The method involves ranking records before querying to prioritize communication link establishment based on ability and relevance criteria, using probability values to determine communication potential without exposing restricted data, and employing machine-learning tools to optimize query modes and intentions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the computer queries all records in the set without ranking, then complete data is processed, but computing resources and waiting time increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by ranking records before the query is executed. The intermediate computer ranks records in the set according to ability data and relevance criteria prior to receiving the query from the first computer. This pre-ranking allows the system to process only the most relevant records during query execution, significantly reducing computing resources and waiting time while maintaining complete data availability when needed.
2Loss of time
If the computer ranks records before querying, then computing resources are reduced and waiting time decreases, but data privacy and security requirements must be maintained
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating how data is handled in different contexts. Restricted data is used locally for ranking purposes to improve query efficiency, but this same data is not exposed to users in the query results. The system maintains data privacy by using probability values instead of original restricted data, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected while still enabling optimized query processing.
3Productivity
If the computer uses restricted data for ranking, then query optimization is achieved, but data access restrictions must be enforced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the intermediary principle by introducing probability values as a mediator between restricted data and query processing. The intermediate computer transforms restricted data into probability values that capture the essential ranking information without exposing the original sensitive data. This intermediary representation enables query optimization while maintaining data access restrictions, as the probability values can be used for ranking without requiring users to access the underlying restricted data.

AI summary
An intermediate computer (200) establishes a computer-implemented communication link (305) between a first computer (201) and a second computer (202). The intermediate computer (200) obtains (420) - from the first computer (201) - a person-identifier and a topic-descriptor (199, PLANET). It then executes (430) a query (391) to a set (300) of records (302, 303), wherein the records represent associations from particular topics to particular persons by comprising assignments from topic-descriptors to person-identifiers. Prior to obtaining (420) the person-identifier and the topic descriptor from the first computer (202), the intermediate computer (200) ranks (410) the records (302, 303) in the set (300), so that in executing (430) the query (391), the intermediate computer (200) processes higher ranked records (311) with priority over lower ranked records (312). After obtaining (420) the first person-identifier (Anna) and the first topic-descriptor (199, PLANET), the intermediate computer (200) selects the set of records by a selector (291), so that the step executing (430) the query (391) is performed with the selected set. With the second computer (202) being a computer that interacts with the further person (102), the intermediate computer (200) establishes (450) the communication link (305) between the first and second computers (201, 202).
