Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems managing large-scale geographic spaces with moving objects face increased communication loads between servers, limiting processing efficiency and scalability as the number of automobiles and geographic features grows.
Innovation Solution
A system comprising mobile object servers assigned to regions, allowing for the transfer of mobile object agents between neighboring regions and execution of event collection from event servers, reducing communication load and enhancing scalability by managing moving objects across regions efficiently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If geographic space is divided and multiple servers are used to process different regions, then the system can handle larger geographic spaces, but communication load between servers increases due to automobiles moving across regions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a copy of the mobile object agent and transfers it to the server responsible for the neighboring region when the moving object crosses region boundaries. This copying approach allows the agent to continue execution locally without requiring continuous communication with the original server, thereby reducing inter-server communication load while maintaining system scalability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system divides the geographic space into multiple regions, each handled by a dedicated server. Mobile object agents are segmented and transferred between servers based on the moving object's location. This segmentation enables distributed processing across multiple servers while minimizing communication overhead through localized agent execution.
2Speed
If all processing is done within one server to minimize processing time, then individual automobile processing is fast, but the system cannot handle large scale geographic spaces with many automobiles
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the geographic space into multiple regions, each processed by a dedicated server. This segmentation allows the system to handle large-scale geographic spaces while maintaining fast processing speeds within each region, as each server can process moving objects in its assigned region independently without inter-server communication delays.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically transfers mobile object agents between servers based on the real-time location of moving objects. When a moving object enters a new region, its agent is transferred to the corresponding server, ensuring that processing always occurs on the server closest to the object's current location, thereby maintaining fast processing speeds across expanding geographic spaces.
