Solution Overview

Problem

Current data management systems for computing devices lack efficient methods to organize and utilize data generated from various application programs, leading to unmanaged data accumulation and difficulty in retrieval and classification.

Innovation Solution

A keyword-based data management system that uses storage folders named after keywords-of-interest, providing a recommendation list based on usage history to facilitate data organization and storage, allowing users to easily access and manage data related to their interests.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If data is stored in folders based on user memory and manual selection, then data can be stored, but data classification and retrieval become difficult over time

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata storage capacityVSAvoiddata retrieval and classification
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments data storage by creating multiple storage folders organized in upper and lower layers, each named after keywords-of-interest. This segmentation allows data to be automatically classified into appropriate folders based on keywords extracted from application programs, solving the problem of manual classification difficulty.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces a keyword-based intermediary mechanism that automatically associates data with appropriate storage folders. Instead of direct manual classification, keywords act as intermediaries that link application program data to relevant storage folders, enabling automated and accurate data organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of manufacture

If commercialized applications are used for data management, then basic storage functions are provided, but retrieval and classification functions related to user's personal interest field are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata storage functionVSAvoidpersonalized data management capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by customizing storage folder names and structures according to each user's personal interest fields and keywords-of-interest. Instead of a uniform storage structure, each user can have tailored storage folders that reflect their specific needs, enhancing adaptability while maintaining basic storage functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary action by pre-organizing storage folders based on keywords-of-interest before data is generated. This allows data to be automatically routed to appropriate folders as it is created, rather than requiring post-processing classification, thus providing both basic storage and personalized management capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Quantity of substance

If multiple application programs are executed to collect data, then data quantity increases, but data management effort increases proportionally

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata quantityVSAvoiddata management time
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements self-service by automatically managing data classification and storage without requiring user intervention. The keyword-based mechanism autonomously extracts keywords from application programs and routes data to appropriate storage folders, allowing data quantity to increase while management time remains minimal.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback by continuously monitoring application program execution and automatically updating storage folder associations based on keywords-of-interest. This real-time feedback mechanism ensures data is properly classified as it is generated, eliminating the need for subsequent manual management efforts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

The present invention provides a data management system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a keyword-based data management system and method for managing and utilizing multiple pieces of data generated when application programs executed in various types of computing apparatuses are used, and improving a management environment. Proposed according to an embodiment of the present invention is a new procedure for selecting a keyword-of-interest storage before an operation of using a computing apparatus, by classifying data used or collected in the past and storing the same in a keyword-of-interest-based storage. Accordingly, a user can easily access collected data associated with his/her interest, which leads the user to systematically manage data in which the user is interested, and delete and dispose of data in which the user is not interested.
