Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional approaches to determining the status of scheduled media presentations in multichannel media distribution platforms are inadequate for timely and accurate assessment, failing to provide substantive analysis or performance metrics.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for receiving status reports from multiple media receivers, generating database entries and analytical information, and displaying this information on user client devices, enabling timely and accurate analysis of media delivery notifications.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If conventional approaches are used to determine status of scheduled media presentations, then the system can operate with simple data collection, but the analysis timing and accuracy are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestatus determination accuracyVSAvoidanalysis timing
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary data collection and processing by receiving status reports from multiple media receivers and generating database entries before final analysis is needed. This allows the system to prepare and structure data in advance, enabling timely and accurate status determination without delaying analysis timing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary processing layer that receives raw status reports from media receivers, generates standardized database entries, and then produces analytical information. This intermediary structure enables accurate status determination while maintaining timely analysis by systematically transforming data at each stage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Loss of information

If detailed analysis of media delivery notifications is performed, then performance metrics can be accurately determined, but system complexity and resource expenditure increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveperformance metric completenessVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the analysis process into distinct functional stages: receiving status reports, generating database entries, and producing analytical information. Each stage handles specific tasks independently, allowing detailed performance metric analysis while managing system complexity through modular processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The database entry generation component serves multiple functions simultaneously: it stores raw status reports, structures data for analysis, and prepares information for performance metric calculation. This multi-functionality reduces overall system complexity while maintaining complete performance metric determination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Quantity of substance

If status reports from multiple media receivers are collected and analyzed, then aggregated performance can be assessed, but data processing volume increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata volumeVSAvoidprocessing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary data structuring by generating standardized database entries from raw status reports before aggregation analysis. This preliminary organization of data reduces the complexity of subsequent processing, enabling efficient aggregation of performance metrics across multiple media receivers despite increased data volume.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system merges individual status reports from multiple media receivers into a unified database structure, then aggregates this consolidated data to produce overall performance metrics. This merging approach handles increased data volume efficiently by processing structured data rather than individual unstructured reports.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

A facility for generating analytical information based on individual reports of multiple scheduled presentations of interstitial media assets is provided. Data files are received that each include multiple status reports regarding multiple scheduled presentations of multiple media assets by a plurality of distinct media receivers in multiple disparate locations. Based at least in part on the data files, multiple database entries are generated for at least one database containing information regarding the multiple scheduled presentations and the plurality of distinct media receivers. Analytical information is generated regarding the multiple scheduled media presentations based on the generated database entries, including an aggregated success rate for one or more subsets of the scheduled media presentations. At least some of the generated first analytical information is displayed on a user client device coupled to the multichannel media distribution computing system.
