M2M Resource Offloading with Synchronization Attributes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current M2M systems face challenges in achieving low delay and high reliability through resource offloading due to lack of clear attributes for synchronization operations in existing resource offloading procedures.
Innovation Solution
The method involves defining new resource types and attributes such as 'offloadTo', 'offloadSync', 'syncTime', and 'syncResponsibility' to manage resource offloading between nodes, enabling efficient synchronization and management of offloaded resources in M2M systems.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If resource offloading is performed without clear synchronization attributes, then resource management flexibility is improved, but synchronization reliability and delay performance deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces specific synchronization parameters (syncTime, syncResponsibility, synchMode) to transform the vague resource offloading process into a precisely controllable operation. By defining these parameters, the system achieves both flexibility (through configurable options) and reliability (through explicit synchronization control), resolving the contradiction between adaptability and synchronization reliability.
2Device complexity
If resource offloading is performed without defined synchronization attributes, then system complexity is reduced, but delay performance and reliability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by defining synchronization attributes (syncTime, syncResponsibility, synchMode) in advance during the resource offloading setup phase. This preliminary configuration ensures that synchronization operations proceed efficiently without delays during actual resource updates, resolving the contradiction between system complexity and delay performance.
3Ease of manufacture
If traditional resource offloading procedures are used without specific synchronization attributes, then implementation simplicity is maintained, but synchronization precision and reliability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the resource offloading process into distinct controllable components by introducing specific synchronization attributes (syncTime for timing control, syncResponsibility for role assignment, synchMode for mode selection). This segmentation allows each aspect of synchronization to be independently configured and optimized, achieving high synchronization precision while maintaining implementation simplicity through modular attribute-based control.

AI summary
A method for performing resource offloading in an M2M system is provided. The method is performed based on an offloaded resource and offloaded attributes. The method includes generating an offloading request message that requests offloading of a source resource. In response to the offloading request message, offloading the source resource for which the offloading is requested. An offloaded resource is then generated using the offloaded source resource. Herein, the offloaded resource includes synchronization modes designating synchronization methods with the offloaded source resource as offloaded attributes.
