Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional information processing systems incur increased operation costs due to the transmission and reception of large amounts of long text messages, which are not efficiently managed.

Innovation Solution

An information processing system with terminal-side and server-side controllers that allow users to expand the representable range of messages under charging conditions, using charge amount determination data to calculate and store corresponding charges, thereby reducing operational costs and enhancing user engagement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the message representable range is expanded to increase user freedom, then user engagement increases, but operation cost increases due to transmission and reception of large amounts of long text messages

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvemessage representable rangeVSAvoidoperation cost

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the parameter of message representation from limited text to expanded formats including images, videos, and other media types. This allows users to express messages in diverse formats while the server selectively transmits only when necessary, reducing overall transmission volume and operation costs despite the expanded representable range

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The server performs preliminary determination of whether message transmission is necessary before actual transmission occurs. By pre-assessing transmission necessity based on user profiles, relationship data, and message characteristics, the system avoids unnecessary transmissions and reduces operation costs while maintaining expanded message capabilities

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

2Loss of information

If large amounts of long text messages are transmitted and received, then complete information is delivered, but operation cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvemessage information completenessVSAvoidoperation cost

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system transmits only the necessary portion of message information rather than complete information in all cases. By determining transmission necessity and selecting appropriate message subsets, the system delivers sufficient information to users while significantly reducing transmission volume and operation costs

Inventive Principle:

Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses message summaries, previews, or representative samples instead of transmitting complete long text messages. This copying approach allows users to access essential message content without the full transmission cost, maintaining information utility while reducing operation expenses

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

AI summary

An information processor comprises a terminal-side controller programmed to execute: (A1) a process of allowing a creation of a message to the information processor of a transmission destination; and (A2) a process of expanding a representable range of the message on condition of charging when the message is created, and a server comprises a server-side controller that calculates a charge amount charged for the message in the information processor by referring to a charge amount determination data, and a server-side memory that stores the charge amount correspondingly to each of the information processors.
