Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems for managing capacity plans in computer networks lack flexibility and efficiency in handling exchanges with multiple terms and rules, leading to inefficiencies in updating data and increased risk of fraud due to the use of single sub-ledgers.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a system with multiple sub-ledgers, each with unique configuration parameters and rules, allowing exchanges to be dynamically routed and updated independently, enhancing fraud detection and compliance with regulations by using a ledger with sub-ledgers to broadcast exchanges and calculate update characteristic values.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a single sub-ledger is used to manage capacity plans, then the system structure is simple, but the system lacks flexibility and efficiency in handling exchanges with multiple terms and rules

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveflexibility in handling exchangesVSAvoidsystem structure

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides a single sub-ledger into multiple sub-ledgers, each capable of storing different types of exchanges with specific terms and rules. This segmentation allows the system to handle diverse exchange types (e.g., different payment methods, billing cycles, or service categories) independently, improving flexibility without requiring a complete system redesign.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If a single sub-ledger is used for updating data, then the update process is straightforward, but the processing speed and efficiency are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveprocessing speedVSAvoidledger structure

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

By segmenting the ledger into multiple sub-ledgers, the system can process updates in parallel across different sub-ledgers simultaneously. Each sub-ledger can be updated independently based on its specific configuration parameters, thereby increasing overall processing throughput and efficiency.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically routes exchanges to appropriate sub-ledgers based on configuration parameters such as exchange type, amount, or user profile. This dynamic routing optimizes processing efficiency by directing each exchange to the most suitable sub-ledger, reducing bottlenecks and improving overall system productivity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

3Reliability

If a single sub-ledger is used, then the system is easier to manage, but the risk of fraud increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvefraud detection capabilityVSAvoidledger management

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements multiple sub-ledgers with distinct configuration parameters and access controls. This segmentation isolates different types of financial data and operations, making it harder for fraudulent activities to affect the entire system. Each sub-ledger can have its own validation rules and monitoring mechanisms, enhancing fraud detection capability.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different sub-ledgers can have customized configuration parameters tailored to specific exchange types or risk profiles. This local quality approach allows the system to apply stricter validation and monitoring rules to high-risk exchanges while maintaining efficiency for low-risk transactions, thereby improving overall fraud detection without uniformly increasing complexity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality

4Adaptability or versatility

If multiple sub-ledgers are implemented with unique configuration parameters, then the system becomes more scalable and efficient, but the complexity of managing the ledger increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecustomization capabilityVSAvoidledger management

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal configuration parameter structure that can accommodate multiple sub-ledgers with different settings. This universal framework allows the system to manage diverse exchange types and rules through a common interface and management mechanism, reducing the operational complexity despite the increased number of sub-ledgers.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to calculate an update characteristic value for a capacity plan having multiple sub-ledgers. One system can include a communication network interface, a memory, and one or more processors. The memory can store a ledger to broadcast exchanges associated with the capacity plan. The one or more processors can identify a predetermined capacity plan characteristic value indicating a minimum update per cycle value for the capacity plan or a time period for completion of an update of a value of the capacity plan to zero. The one or more processors can calculate an update characteristic value for updating the value of the capacity plan to zero. The one or more processors can transmit, via the communication network interface, a record comprising the update characteristic value.
