Application Metadata Enquiry Generation for Lower Content Overhead
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Content providers spend significant time and resources generating and storing enquiries and responses for interactive content items, leading to high storage and network congestion, which reduces efficiency and increases time consumption.
Innovation Solution
A data processing system automatically generates enquiries and responses based on application metadata, reducing the need for content providers to transmit and store these elements, thereby minimizing resource consumption and network traffic.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If content providers manually create and store enquiries and responses for content items, then the content items can provide interactive user engagement, but the storage resources consumed by content servers and time consumed by content providers increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by allowing content items to automatically generate their own enquiries and responses using application metadata, eliminating the need for manual creation by content providers. The content item extracts relevant information from the application's metadata fields and automatically formulates enquiries with possible responses, making the system self-sufficient in generating interactive content.
Solution Approach 2:
The system extracts necessary information from application metadata to create enquiries and responses. Instead of storing complete enquiry-response pairs, the system extracts only the essential metadata fields (such as application name, description, categories) and uses them to dynamically generate enquiries, thereby reducing storage requirements while maintaining interactivity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If content providers manually create and store enquiries and responses for content items, then the content items can provide interactive user engagement, but the storage resources consumed by content servers increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts only the necessary metadata fields from applications (such as name, description, categories, keywords) to generate enquiries and responses dynamically. By extracting only these essential elements rather than storing complete interactive content pairs, the system significantly reduces the quantity of data that needs to be stored on content servers while preserving the ability to provide interactive engagement.
Solution Approach 2:
The system makes application metadata multi-functional by using the same metadata not only for application identification and display but also for generating interactive enquiries and responses. This universal use of metadata eliminates the need for separate storage of enquiry-response pairs, as the metadata serves multiple purposes including generating interactive content on-demand.
3Reliability
If content providers manually curate and update enquiries and responses, then the content items maintain accuracy and relevance, but the process becomes time-consuming and resource-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The system maintains accuracy through self-service by automatically generating enquiries and responses from the application's own metadata. Since the enquiries are derived directly from the application's official metadata (name, description, categories), the content remains accurate and relevant without requiring manual curation. The system updates automatically when metadata changes, eliminating the need for manual updates while maintaining reliability.
4Ease of operation
If enquiries and responses are included in content items stored by content servers, then user interaction can be facilitated, but network traffic and data transmission increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system removes the need to transmit complete enquiry-response pairs over the network by extracting only the essential metadata fields from the application. The content server receives minimal metadata data and generates the interactive enquiries and responses locally, thereby facilitating user interaction while minimizing network traffic and data transmission energy consumption.
Data Source
AI summary
Systems and methods for generating enquiries and responses based on application metadata are provided. The systems and methods can include a data processing system (“DPS”). The DPS can receive, from a client device, a request for content. The DPS can access metadata of one or more applications available for installation, the metadata of each application comprises a plurality of field-value pairs including values received from a device corresponding to a publisher of the application. The DPS can determine, from the metadata, entries associated with the applications, comprising enquiries and corresponding responses. The DPS can select a content item including a subset of the one or more entries and an actionable object, which when selected, causes the client device to access an information resource from which an application of the one or more applications can be installed. The DPS can transmit the content item for display on the client device.
