Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If search results are provided based only on query sequence correspondence, then the search system is simple and fast, but the search results are incompatible with different mobile terminals and browsers
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-collecting terminal support information for multiple candidate pages and establishing page terminal support information mappings before search queries are executed. This advance preparation enables the search system to quickly match user terminal capabilities with appropriate search results without adding complexity during the actual search process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces page terminal support information as an intermediary layer between the search query and the actual search results. This intermediary contains mapping relationships between page identification information and terminal support information, enabling compatibility matching without requiring direct complex interactions between diverse terminals and varied search results.
2Productivity
If search results are customized for different terminals, then user experience and information efficiency improve, but the processing complexity and time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent reduces processing time by performing preliminary actions of collecting terminal support information and establishing page terminal support information mappings in advance. When a search query is received, the system only needs to perform simple matching operations using the pre-prepared information, significantly reducing the time loss associated with customization.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs self-service by automatically matching terminal attribute information with page terminal support information to determine compatible search results without requiring manual intervention. This automated self-matching process maintains high information retrieval efficiency while minimizing additional processing time.
3Measurement precision
If terminal support information is collected from multiple sources, then the accuracy and diversity of support information improve, but the data collection complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing a unified page terminal support information structure that can accommodate multiple sources of terminal support information. This universal framework allows the system to collect data from various sources (page related information, terminal related information, candidate terminal support information) through a single standardized interface, reducing data collection complexity while maintaining accuracy and diversity.

AI summary
An apparatus for providing search results on a mobile terminal includes a page-obtaining module configured to obtain a plurality of candidate pages and terminal-support information corresponding to the candidate page, and a support-information-updating module configured to establish or update page terminal-support information based on the candidate page and its corresponding terminal-support information. The page terminal-support information includes a mapping relationship between one or more groups of page-identification information and their corresponding terminal-support information. The apparatus also has a processing module configured to perform subsequent processing to one or more search results corresponding to the user's mobile query request based on terminal-attribute information of the mobile terminal corresponding to the user and the page terminal-support information, and a providing module configured to provide at least one of the one or more processed search results to an application corresponding to the mobile query request.
