Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If blockchain technology is used to ensure data consistency across node devices, then data consistency is improved, but data authenticity cannot be guaranteed leading to potential junk data issues

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata consistencyVSAvoiddata authenticity
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transitions from single-dimension verification to multi-dimensional verification by incorporating data from multiple sources including blockchain data, external data sources, and historical data. This dimensional expansion allows the system to verify both consistency and authenticity simultaneously by cross-referencing target data across different data dimensions and time periods

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If multi-dimensional data from various sources is acquired and verified, then data credibility is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata credibilityVSAvoidverification system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The verification system is segmented into distinct functional modules: a data acquisition module that retrieves target data and multi-dimensional verification data from various sources, and a verification module that performs the actual verification. This segmentation allows each module to specialize in specific tasks, managing complexity through functional decomposition while maintaining high data credibility

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a verification module as an intermediary between data acquisition and data usage. This intermediary component coordinates the complex verification process by receiving target data, acquiring multi-dimensional verification data from multiple sources, performing verification operations, and outputting verification results. The intermediary manages the complexity of multi-source data integration and verification logic

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
