Instant Messaging Combined Data Transmission via Server Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current online chatting or instant messaging services primarily focus on text and image delivery, failing to capture users' attention as communication shifts from PC-to-PC to mobile-to-mobile, leading to a demand for enhanced mobile chatting services.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for providing an instant messaging service that generates combined data through a terminal, transmits it to a server, and stores it in a database, allowing for the association and transmission of text, images, and periods between terminals, enabling dynamic and engaging communication.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If combined data including text, images, and timing is transmitted between terminals, then user engagement and interactivity are improved, but device complexity and data processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The message data is segmented into multiple components including text data, first image data, second image data, and period data. Each component is processed and transmitted separately through the network, allowing the system to handle complex multimedia messages by breaking them down into manageable segments that can be individually managed and reassembled at the receiving end.
Solution Approach 2:
A server acts as an intermediary between terminals, receiving combined data from one terminal, storing it in a database, and transmitting it to the second terminal. This mediator approach simplifies the complexity at individual terminals by centralizing the data processing and management functions on the server side.
2Loss of information
If multiple data types (text, images, period) are associated and transmitted together, then communication expressiveness is improved, but network bandwidth consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by uploading and storing images and text data in the server database before actual message transmission. This pre-processing allows the combined data to be efficiently managed and transmitted only when needed, reducing redundant network traffic and optimizing bandwidth utilization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a temporal dimension by including period data that specifies timing intervals for image transmission. This transforms the communication from a static data transfer to a time-dynamic transmission model, where images are transmitted at specific intervals, optimizing network bandwidth usage while maintaining expressive communication capabilities.
3Speed
If combined data is stored in terminal memory, then data access speed is improved, but terminal storage requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The server database serves multiple functions: storing combined data, managing image uploads, and facilitating data retrieval for multiple terminals. This universal storage solution eliminates the need for each terminal to maintain large local storage capacities, as the centralized database can serve all terminals efficiently.
Data Source
AI summary
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a method and system of providing an instant message service are provided. Combined data is generated through a first terminal. The combined data is transmitted to a server through a network. The transmitted combined data is stored in a database of the server in a predetermined format. A first text is entered through the first terminal. The entered first text is transmitted to the server. Whether the combined data matches the first text is determined. When the combined data matches the first text, the combined data is transmitted to the first terminal and a second terminal that communicates with the first terminal.
