Solution Overview

Problem

Messages often fail to elicit the desired response due to lacking necessary information, leading to additional messaging that burdens networks and system resources.

Innovation Solution

A computing device analyzes electronic messages and constructs related messages by referencing historical data to include required information, reducing the need for additional messages and processing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If additional messages are transmitted to request missing information, then the required information can be obtained, but network burden and system resource consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemessage completenessVSAvoidnetwork resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by analyzing the received message against historical data and requirement definitions before transmission occurs. It proactively identifies missing information and automatically generates supplementary messages with the required data, preventing the need for multiple back-and-forth communication cycles and reducing overall network resource consumption

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If the message includes all required information from historical data, then the desired response is more likely to be elicited, but the message processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresponse elicitation successVSAvoidmessage construction complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the message construction process into distinct functional modules: a requirement definition module that stores information requirements, an analysis module that compares received messages against requirements using historical data, and a generation module that creates supplementary messages. This modular segmentation reduces processing complexity by organizing the complex task into manageable, independent components

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary component - the historical data repository and analysis mechanism - that mediates between the received message and the message construction process. This intermediary automatically provides the required information based on historical patterns, simplifying the construction process while ensuring message completeness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A computing device, method and computer program product are provided to process messages received from a source and to construct messages transmitted to a recipient that include the information required to elicit the desired response. In relation to a method, an electronic message is received and analyzed relative to requirements of the related message to determine whether the electronic message includes information required by the related message. If the analysis determines that the electronic message fails to satisfy the requirements of the related message, the method searches historical data related to prior messages to identify additional information sufficient in combination with the information provided by the electronic message to satisfy the requirements of the related message, constructing the related message based upon the additional information identified from the historical data and the information provided by the electronic message, and causing the related message to be transmitted to a request processor.
