Loader Data File Integrates Parameters for Reliable Transfer
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current data transfer methods between data processing devices are prone to human errors due to the need for manual configuration of download/upload tools and the risk of file divergence during data transfer processes, leading to potential failures.
Innovation Solution
A method that integrates download parameters and data into a single loader data file, ensuring that both parts always match and reducing the risk of human errors by automating the configuration process, which includes using a loader data file with embedded download parameters such as memory addresses, checksums, encryption information, and validity flags to ensure accurate and secure data transfer.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual configuration of download/upload tool is required, then device complexity is reduced, but reliability deteriorates due to human errors
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the download parameters and data into a single integrated loader data file. This eliminates the need for separate configuration files and manual parameter entry, thereby reducing the complexity of the configuration process while improving reliability by eliminating human errors in parameter entry and file matching.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-configuration by automatically extracting download parameters from the integrated loader data file without requiring manual user input. The download/upload tool automatically reads the parameters, ensuring consistent and error-free configuration while reducing the operational complexity for users.
2Reliability
If separate configuration file and data file are used, then ease of operation is improved, but reliability deteriorates due to file divergence risk
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the configuration data and actual data into a single loader data file structure. This integration eliminates the risk of file divergence between separate configuration and data files, while the structured format maintains ease of operation by providing clear, organized information within the unified file.
3Productivity
If manual parameter entry is required, then device complexity is reduced, but productivity deteriorates due to time-consuming configuration
Solution Approach 1:
The download parameters are pre-integrated into the loader data file before the data transfer process. This preliminary integration eliminates the need for manual parameter entry during operation, significantly improving productivity by reducing configuration time while the automated extraction process keeps the complexity manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically extracts and processes download parameters from the integrated loader data file without requiring manual user intervention. This self-service approach improves productivity by eliminating time-consuming manual configuration while the automated processing keeps the system complexity within acceptable limits.
