Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Mobile devices face challenges in managing the activation of application programs when multiple safety entities, which store identical applications, are present, requiring a method to efficiently select and activate the appropriate application while ensuring security and user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method and mobile device architecture that utilize a communication manager to identify and activate application programs based on transmission protocols, with a default safety entity selection mechanism and cyclic ordering for fallback options, ensuring seamless activation and user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If multiple safety entities store identical application programs, then security and redundancy are improved, but the complexity of managing application activation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by allowing the mobile device to automatically identify and activate application programs from appropriate safety entities without user intervention. The device autonomously manages the complexity of multiple safety entities through automatic protocol identification and entity selection, while users simply need to install applications once.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements multi-functionality by creating a universal application program management system that works across multiple safety entities with different transmission protocols (NFC, Bluetooth, WiFi). The system universally handles application installation, activation, and fallback operations across diverse safety entities, eliminating the need for separate management mechanisms for each protocol or entity.
2Ease of operation
If the system automatically selects a default safety entity for application activation, then operation simplicity is improved, but the risk of activation failure increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies beforehand cushioning by implementing a fallback mechanism that prepares alternative safety entities in advance. When the default safety entity fails to activate an application, the system automatically tries other safety entities in a predetermined sequence, cushioning against activation failure before it occurs and ensuring continuous operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback by monitoring the activation status of application programs and automatically responding to activation failures. When a default safety entity fails to activate an application, the system receives feedback about the failure and automatically adjusts by trying alternative safety entities, creating a closed-loop control system that ensures activation success.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system supports multiple transmission protocols (NFC, Bluetooth, WiFi), then adaptability is improved, but the complexity of protocol identification and entity selection increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies taking out by extracting and isolating the protocol identification function into a separate, dedicated module within the mobile device. This extracted component specifically handles protocol identification and safety entity selection, separating this complex task from the general application management system and making it easier to manage and maintain.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements preliminary action by pre-establishing the correspondence relationships between safety entities and transmission protocols before actual application activation occurs. The mobile device maintains pre-configured information about which safety entities support which protocols, allowing rapid identification and selection without complex real-time analysis when activation is needed.
