Solution Overview

Problem

Current data collection and profiling systems in networks are inefficient, as they do not provide real-time information to users, leading to delayed responses and lack of personalized benefits for users, with existing systems primarily benefiting companies rather than users.

Innovation Solution

A multilayer correlating profiling engine that collects and compiles user information in real-time from various sources, creating user and community profiles that are stored in a data repository and made available to applications and services, enhancing user experience and daily tasks.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional back office profiling systems are used to compile user information, then information can be compiled in real time, but the systems are designed for company benefit rather than user benefit, and users do not receive direct personal efficiency improvements

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveinformation compilation speedVSAvoiduser benefit capability

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent inverts the traditional profiling system's purpose: instead of compiling user information solely for company advertising efficiency, the system compiles user profiles specifically to provide direct benefits to users through personalized services, task assistance, and streamlined daily routines, making the user the primary beneficiary rather than the company

Inventive Principle:

Principle #13The other way round (Inversion)

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables users to benefit directly from their own profile data by providing personalized services that assist users in their daily tasks and routines, allowing users to leverage their own information for their own efficiency improvements without requiring company-mediated advertising interactions

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

2Quantity of substance

If network operators use traditional billing data collection methods, then comprehensive user transaction information can be gathered, but the data is delayed six to eight weeks until bill reconciliation, preventing real-time response to user actions

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveuser transaction informationVSAvoiddata availability delay

Core Design Contradiction:

Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary data collection and profile compilation actions continuously in the background before any specific user interaction or company action is needed, maintaining up-to-date user profiles in real time so that when users need services or when companies need to act, the information is already prepared and immediately available without waiting for billing cycles

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements continuous real-time data collection and profile updating operations that continuously maintain current user information, replacing the discontinuous batch processing that occurs only during periodic billing reconciliations, ensuring that user profiles are always current and actionable without time delays

Inventive Principle:

Principle #20Continuity of useful action
