Information Processing System for Meeting Space Matchmaking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
When users invite others who share a specific purpose, there is a need to determine a suitable location for direct meetings, and existing systems lack efficient methods to provide information on candidate places for such meetings.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system comprising an acquirer that gathers user information for invitations, a receiver for acceptance responses, and an outputter that provides information on candidate spaces for users and accepters, utilizing matchmaking and space management servers to facilitate meeting arrangements and reservations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a system provides detailed information on candidate places for meetings, then user convenience and meeting arrangement efficiency are improved, but system complexity and information processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary component that manages the complex tasks of collecting user information, analyzing compatibility, searching for suitable spaces, and presenting candidate places. This intermediary absorbs the system complexity while providing simplified user interaction through intuitive interfaces that display matched spaces and facilitate reservations without exposing users to the underlying computational complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the meeting arrangement process into distinct functional modules: user information acquisition, compatibility analysis, space search, candidate presentation, and reservation management. Each module handles a specific aspect of the process independently, allowing the system to manage complexity through modular design while maintaining ease of operation through coordinated workflow among segments.
2Measurement precision
If the system collects and processes extensive user information for matchmaking, then matching accuracy and suitability of candidate places are improved, but information processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by collecting and structuring user information in advance, including preferences, requirements, and compatibility criteria. This pre-processing of data enables faster real-time matching when users seek meeting spaces, as the foundational information is already organized and ready for rapid analysis rather than requiring complete data gathering during the matching process.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts matching parameters and weighting factors based on the specific context of each request, such as prioritizing different user preferences or space attributes depending on the meeting purpose. This parameter flexibility allows the system to maintain high matching accuracy across diverse scenarios while optimizing processing time by focusing computational resources on the most relevant criteria for each situation.

AI summary
An information processing system includes an acquirer that acquires, from a user, information related to invitation of persons who share a specific purpose, a receiver that receives a response for acceptance of the invitation, and an outputter that outputs information on a candidate place to be used by the user and an accepter who accepts the invitation.
