A mobile orchestration platform that translates data between different formats, enabling seamless sharing and configuration of data between mobile applications and services, using endpoint connectors and a translation module to facilitate communication and data exchange.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If paper-based forms are used for data collection and sharing, then data can be captured and distributed to field workers, but data exchange becomes slow and costly with manual entry and integration requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical paper-based data collection system with an electronic mobile device system. Mobile devices capture data electronically in the field, eliminating the need for physical paper forms, manual data entry, and physical transportation of data back to the office. This substitution directly resolves the contradiction by improving data exchange efficiency while eliminating time losses associated with manual processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates electronic copies of data captured on mobile devices and transmits them wirelessly to the office system. Instead of physically returning paper forms, the system creates digital replicas of the collected data and transfers them electronically, dramatically improving exchange efficiency and eliminating the time required for manual data entry and integration.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple mobile applications and services are used for data collection, then data capture capabilities are enhanced, but data format incompatibility prevents integration between applications
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a mobile orchestration platform as an intermediary layer between multiple mobile applications and services. This platform provides standardized data exchange protocols and format conversion capabilities, allowing diverse applications to communicate effectively. The intermediary resolves the contradiction by maintaining adaptability across different applications while managing format compatibility through standardized interfaces.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal data exchange framework that enables different mobile applications to share data through common protocols and formats. The orchestration platform provides multi-functional capabilities including data translation, format conversion, and standardized interfaces, allowing the system to handle diverse data types and formats while maintaining compatibility across all applications.
3Productivity
If data is captured electronically on mobile devices, then data exchange speed improves, but secure management and sharing of data between applications becomes challenging
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs the mobile orchestration platform as a secure intermediary that manages data transmission and access control. The platform implements security protocols, authentication mechanisms, and authorized access controls while enabling rapid data exchange. This resolves the contradiction by maintaining fast data exchange speeds through electronic transmission while ensuring reliability through centralized security management.
Data Source
AI summary
A method and system relating to a mobile orchestration platform to facilitate share of data between orchestration endpoints. The orchestration endpoints may include data applications or data services located on a mobile device or remotely from the mobile device. An example platform includes a first endpoint connector associated with a first orchestration endpoint to communicate between the mobile orchestration platform and the first orchestration endpoint. A second endpoint connector associated with the second orchestration endpoint to communicate between the mobile orchestration platform and the second orchestration endpoint is included. A service module to translate a data record in an intermediate data format to either the first data format or the second data format is included.
