Network Resource Assignment Using Collaboration Scores
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to optimally allocate limited computing resources to networks of computers, leading to inefficiencies in communication and resource utilization.
Innovation Solution
A method that assigns networks to computing resources based on intra-network and inter-network scores, optimizing communication efficiency by determining the intra-network density and metric, and inter-network density and metric, using equations to calculate collaboration scores for efficient resource allocation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If limited computing resources are shared among multiple computer networks, then resource utilization increases, but communication efficiency and resource optimization deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by calculating distinct intra-network and inter-network scores for each network, allowing differential resource allocation based on specific communication characteristics of each network rather than uniform distribution
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes parameters by dynamically computing collaboration scores based on intra-network density, inter-network density, and communication metrics, then uses these parameter changes to optimize resource assignment to networks
2Quantity of substance
If computing resources are allocated to maximize network access, then resource utilization improves, but optimization of communication efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by calculating intra-network and inter-network scores based on actual communication metrics, then using these scores to adjust and optimize resource allocation decisions iteratively
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-calculating collaboration scores and network densities before final resource assignment, enabling optimized allocation decisions to be made in advance based on communication efficiency predictions

AI summary
Computer systems and computer-implemented methods are configured to assign limited resources such as cloud or other computing resources to objects such as networks of computers having demands for the resources. Efficiencies are optimized by assigning the objects based upon an intra-network score and an inter-network score, both of which may include an associated network density and/or an associated metric, and may be based on information received from electronic records. The metric may be a parameter relating to a factor or other characteristic that is desired to be optimized by the assignments. For example, the metric may be related to costs of communications between the computers of a network.
