Mobile Terminal Invitation Object Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for managing invitations with mobile terminals in telecommunications networks, such as DE 10 2004 034 883 A1, lack direct management of appointment data by mobile devices and require additional resources, and are limited in user-specific communication applications, especially for groups.
Innovation Solution
A method for managing invitations that involves receiving, creating, modifying, and sending invitation objects using mobile terminals, allowing for cumulative creation and user interaction through input devices, with features like reminder triggering and storage for later use, enabling simplified and individualized invitation management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a server-based method is used to coordinate appointments with mobile terminals, then centralized management of appointment data is achieved, but direct management of appointment data by mobile devices is not possible and additional resources must be provided and maintained
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal is equipped with an invitation object manager that enables the device to independently receive, create, modify, and send invitation objects without requiring centralized server coordination for these basic operations. The terminal manages its own invitation data locally, eliminating the need for additional server resources while maintaining direct data management capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The invitation management functionality is segmented into modular components within the mobile terminal, including an invitation object manager, memory unit for storage, and interface units for user interaction. This segmentation allows the terminal to handle invitation data independently without requiring centralized coordination, while still providing comprehensive invitation management capabilities.
2Reliability
If additional resources are provided and maintained for computing devices and databases in mobile radio networks, then centralized appointment coordination is enabled, but resource efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal independently manages invitation objects using its own processor and memory resources, eliminating the need for additional server-based computing resources and databases in the mobile radio network. The terminal performs all invitation management operations locally, including receiving, creating, modifying, and sending invitation objects, thereby maintaining reliability while significantly reducing network resource requirements.
3Ease of operation
If invitation objects are created by cumulating received invitation objects with existing invitation objects on the terminal, then usability is simplified and individualization is increased, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The invitation object manager automatically performs the cumulation operation by combining received invitation objects with existing invitation objects stored in the terminal's memory. This automated process simplifies user interaction while the modular design of the invitation object manager keeps the added device complexity manageable and organized.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal pre-stores invitation objects in its memory unit, which are then automatically combined with received invitation objects. This preliminary preparation of invitation data enables rapid creation of customized invitations without requiring complex real-time processing, thereby simplifying usability while managing device complexity through efficient data organization.
