Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems fail to adequately track and mitigate device resource usage across multiple devices and systems, particularly in resource-constrained environments, leading to inefficiencies in resource allocation and management.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising device management servers and mobile devices that perform diagnostics, generate triage data, predict future resource usage, and offset predicted usage with resource deficits from third-party systems through a resource usage mitigation data object.

1Productivity

If resource usage is tracked and mitigated across multiple devices, then resource efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces device management servers as intermediary components that coordinate resource tracking and mitigation across multiple mobile devices. These servers receive device data, generate resource usage mitigation data objects, and transmit instructions to offset resource usage, thereby managing the complexity of multi-device resource coordination centrally rather than requiring direct peer-to-peer communication between devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system segments resource management functions into distinct modular components: diagnostic functions on mobile devices generate device triage data, device management servers process this data and generate resource usage mitigation data objects, and third-party systems provide resource usage offsets. This segmentation allows each component to handle specific tasks independently, improving resource efficiency while managing overall system complexity through functional decomposition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of energy

If predicted future resource usage is offset with third-party resource deficits, then net resource usage is reduced, but data processing requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenet resource usageVSAvoiddata processing requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by predicting future resource usage before it occurs and proactively acquiring resource usage offsets from third-party systems. The device management server generates resource usage mitigation data objects that contain instructions to offset predicted resource consumption, allowing the system to prepare and secure resource offsets in advance rather than reacting after resource usage occurs, thereby reducing net resource usage while managing data processing through advance planning.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where device management servers receive device triage data from mobile devices, process this information to predict future resource usage, and then transmit instructions back to devices or third-party systems to execute resource offsetting actions. This closed-loop feedback process enables continuous monitoring and adjustment of resource usage, reducing net resource consumption while organizing data processing into manageable feedback cycles rather than continuous unstructured processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

Various embodiments are directed to apparatuses, methods, computer readable media, computer program products, and systems related to mitigating resource usage. In some embodiments, the system may comprise one or more device management servers and a mobile device. The mobile device may generate at least device triage data. The one or more device management servers may receive a use phase termination indication associated with the mobile device and the device triage data; retrieve a disposition rule set associated with the mobile device; generate, using a model and based on the device triage data, the disposition rule set, or second device triage data, predicted future resource usage data associated with the mobile device; generate, based on the predicted future resource usage data, a resource usage mitigation data object for the mobile device; and cause resource usage mitigation for the mobile device based on the resource usage mitigation data object.
