Intelligent Messaging Service Recipient Filtering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wireless messaging systems lack customizable and intelligent delivery mechanisms, forcing users to send messages to groups regardless of recipient availability or location, and do not allow for targeted message delivery based on recipient status or location.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that analyze wireless messaging requests for recipient filtering and delivery criteria, enabling users to transmit messages only to available recipients within specified locations, using a wireless message manager and presence/location servers to determine and apply these criteria.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If messages are sent to groups of users, then communication coverage is maximized, but message relevance decreases because unavailable users still receive messages
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by differentiating the treatment of different recipients within the same group. Instead of uniform message delivery, the system identifies and filters recipients based on their availability status and location, delivering messages only to those who meet the specified criteria. This allows the message to have different 'quality' of relevance for different recipients in the group.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by analyzing recipient filtering criteria and delivery criteria before actually delivering the message. The messaging server checks availability status and location information in advance, determining which recipients should receive the message based on pre-established criteria, thereby preventing irrelevant messages from being sent.
2Ease of operation
If messages are sent to all group members, then delivery simplicity is maintained, but user control over message delivery is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The messaging server implements universality by providing multiple delivery control mechanisms within a single system. It can operate in simple mode (sending to all recipients) or intelligent mode (filtering based on criteria), allowing the same system to serve both simple users and power users with different delivery control needs.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies dynamics by making the delivery mechanism adjustable and adaptive. Users can dynamically configure filtering criteria and delivery conditions according to their specific needs, and the system adapts its behavior accordingly. This transforms a static delivery system into a dynamic one that can change its operation mode based on user preferences.
3Loss of information
If messages are delivered based on recipient availability and location, then message relevance is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary approach by using a messaging server as a mediator between the sender and recipients. The server handles the complex tasks of analyzing filtering criteria, checking availability status, and determining delivery eligibility, thereby shielding users from the underlying system complexity while maintaining high message relevance.
4Manufacturing precision
If customizable filtering criteria are implemented, then message delivery precision is improved, but operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies parameter changes by allowing users to modify delivery parameters such as filtering criteria and delivery conditions. Instead of requiring complex programming or configuration, users can simply change parameters like time, location, or availability status, and the system automatically adjusts its delivery behavior accordingly, maintaining ease of operation while improving precision.
Data Source
AI summary
A method, information processing system, and wireless communication system, that provide wireless messaging services to wireless devices. A wireless messaging request is received from a user of at least one wireless device (104). The wireless messaging request is associated with at least one recipient device. The wireless messaging request is analyzed in response to receiving the request. The wireless messaging request is determined to include at least one of recipient filtering criteria (206) and delivery criteria (208) in response to the analyzing. A wireless message associated with the wireless messaging request is transmitted to the at least one wireless device based on the at least one of recipient filtering criteria (206) and delivery criteria (208).
