Network Capability Matching for Dynamic Service Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional network technologies are inadequate in accommodating diverse service types and user requirements in hyper-network environments, failing to provide flexible network construction and management, especially in terms of trust, security, and real-time services, and lack the ability to dynamically control network connections and capabilities.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for defining and controlling network capabilities (NC) based on service capabilities (SC) required by application services, involving a matching system that processes policy and rule units to extract and combine SC units, match them with NC units, and manage network operations through an MMMP networking management system, including an MMMP agent and management server for controlling wired and wireless terminals and IoT devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional network technology is used with predetermined network capability, then network construction is simplified, but the system cannot accommodate various service types and user requirements flexibly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments network capability into discrete, configurable units that can be selectively combined to meet different service requirements. This allows the network to be constructed from modular components rather than requiring complete redesign for each service type, thus improving adaptability while controlling complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces dynamic network capability configuration that allows the network to adapt its parameters in real-time based on service requirements and user preferences. This dynamic adjustment mechanism enables the system to accommodate various service types without requiring complex static configurations for each scenario.
2Ease of operation
If network capability is predetermined and fixed, then network management is simplified, but real-time service control and user-specific network level determination are impossible
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms that allow the network system to monitor service performance and user requirements, then automatically adjust network capability parameters in real-time. This feedback loop enables automated configuration while maintaining operational flexibility, as the system self-adjusts based on monitored conditions rather than requiring manual intervention.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent enables the network system to automatically configure and adjust its own capabilities based on service requirements and user preferences without external intervention. This self-service mechanism reduces the need for manual network management while maintaining high levels of control flexibility through automated decision-making algorithms.
3Productivity
If conventional network construction methods are used, then initial deployment is straightforward, but service introduction time and response to user requirements cannot be optimized
Solution Approach 1:
The patent prepares network capability configurations in advance as reusable templates or profiles that can be quickly deployed when services are introduced. This preliminary preparation eliminates the need for time-consuming custom configurations for each new service, thus accelerating service introduction while reducing configuration time through pre-defined parameter sets.
