Network Load Data Selective Deferral Mobile Cloud Accelerator
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional mobile network systems fail to optimize network usage by not considering the type of content being delivered, leading to network congestion during peak hours, especially for non-time sensitive content like software updates and content synchronization, which can be alleviated by selectively deferring delivery based on network load.
Innovation Solution
Implementing network devices and methods that include a communication interface and processing unit to determine whether to defer the delivery of non-time sensitive content based on current network load, using historic or near real-time data to decide when to send the content, thereby reducing congestion and improving user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If content delivery is performed promptly without considering network load, then user satisfaction and service quality are improved, but network congestion occurs during peak hours
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary assessment of network load conditions before initiating content delivery. The network device determines whether to defer delivery based on current network state, preventing congestion before it occurs by avoiding simultaneous deliveries during peak load periods
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts content delivery timing based on real-time network load conditions. Delivery decisions are flexible and adaptive, switching between immediate delivery and deferred delivery modes according to network state, rather than following a fixed delivery schedule
2Ease of operation
If non-time sensitive content is delivered during peak hours, then content availability is improved, but network efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements periodic delivery of non-time sensitive content by deferring delivery until off-peak hours when network load is lower. Content is delivered in periodic intervals rather than immediately, matching network capacity cycles and improving overall network efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the timing parameter of content delivery based on network load conditions. By adjusting the delivery time parameter from immediate to deferred, the system maintains content availability while improving network efficiency during peak periods
3Object-generated harmful factors
If content delivery is deferred based on network load, then network congestion is reduced, but delivery time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies different delivery strategies to different types of content based on their time sensitivity characteristics. Time-sensitive content receives immediate delivery while non-time sensitive content is deferred, creating localized quality differences in delivery timing that reduce overall congestion without unnecessarily delaying critical content

AI summary
Network devices, servers, and modules operating within MCA capable to selectively defer delivery of non-time sensitive content are provided. A network device (315) includes a communication interface (410) configured to enable communication with a client device (310), and to receive a request for a content delivery from the client device (310). The network device also includes a processing unit (420) configured to determine whether to defer the request depending on a network load at a time when the request has been received.
