Solution Overview

Problem

Existing network resource management systems face challenges in efficiently tracking and managing network resources across multiple platforms, including ownership, transfer rules, and latency in access provisioning, which complicates the acquisition and transfer of network resources.

Innovation Solution

The implementation of a system that allows network providers to monitor and facilitate the transfer of network resources through network portals, enabling flexible transfer options and policies, and improving database entry modifications to simplify resource management and transfer processes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If network resources are transferred across multiple platforms with complex ownership and transfer rules, then resource transferability is improved, but system complexity and tracking difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource transferabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a centralized database as an intermediary that mediates all network resource transfers. This database maintains authoritative records of ownership, transfer rules, and resource locations, simplifying the complex multi-platform transfer process by providing a single source of truth that all platforms can query and update.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The database system performs multiple functions: tracking resource ownership, enforcing transfer rules, recording transactions, and providing audit trails. This multi-functional approach consolidates what would otherwise require separate systems for each function, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining versatile resource transfer capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive tracking of network resource transfers is implemented, then resource management accuracy is improved, but data processing time and latency increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetracking accuracyVSAvoiddata processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent establishes transfer rules and ownership records in advance in the database before actual resource transfers occur. This preliminary setup allows the system to automatically enforce rules and track transfers without requiring complex real-time calculations, reducing processing time while maintaining accurate tracking.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The database maintains simplified representations (copies) of resource ownership and transfer rules that can be quickly queried and updated. Rather than tracking every detail of each transfer in real-time, the system uses these copied records to efficiently monitor and manage resource flows while preserving accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

The present disclosure generally relates to database modification, and in particular, database modification in the context of networked platforms accessible by user computing devices. One example context to which such database modification techniques can be applied is a network provider providing a plurality of individual network portals via which users may acquire network resources and perform other transactions. Acquired network resources can subsequently be transferred to other users within or outside the communication network, and the original owner of the network resources may specify resource transfer options that specify the rules that govern these subsequent transfers. Further, these transactions may occur via network portals and/or physical portals associated with the users of the communication network. The network provider may maintain a database that keeps track of the network resources and update the database as these transactions occur.
