Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional security systems are used to detect and address cybersecurity threats, then basic security monitoring is maintained, but the system becomes inefficient and unable to keep pace with increasing automation and digitization

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity threat detection efficiencyVSAvoidcybersecurity breach prevention capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary authentication and verification of resources before they are accessed or used. The resource ontology system pre-validates resources, creates digital signatures for resources, and establishes trust relationships in advance, so that when security threats arise, the damage is already limited and detection is faster.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a resource ontology system as an intermediary layer between resources and applications. This intermediary maintains a resource ontology database that stores resource information, authentication status, and relationships, enabling efficient security verification without requiring direct complex interactions between all system components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If comprehensive resource monitoring and authentication is implemented, then security is enhanced, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource authentication accuracyVSAvoidsecurity system structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The resource ontology system serves multiple functions simultaneously: it stores resource information, authenticates resources, tracks resource relationships, generates digital signatures, and enables security verification. This multi-functional approach consolidates what would otherwise require multiple separate systems into a single unified platform.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates digital signatures and copies of resource authentication data that can be verified without accessing the original resources. These signatures serve as lightweight representations that enable fast verification while maintaining security, avoiding the need to constantly monitor and analyze the full complexity of original resources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Difficulty of detecting and measuring

If real-time monitoring of resource interactions is implemented, then security detection capability is improved, but processing time and system resources increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecurity issue detection capabilityVSAvoidresource verification time
Core Design Contradiction:
Difficulty of detecting and measuringVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-computes and stores resource authentication data, digital signatures, and relationship information in the resource ontology database before security verification is needed. This preliminary preparation enables fast real-time verification by simply comparing against pre-stored data rather than performing complex analysis during security events.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces complex mechanical security verification processes with cryptographic digital signature verification. Instead of analyzing resource behavior patterns or performing deep inspections in real-time, the system uses mathematical cryptographic operations to quickly verify authenticity, dramatically reducing processing time while maintaining high detection capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

AI summary

Systems that aid in application development, in particular, to the use of a resource ontology system that includes an interconnected map that links resources that interact with each other, as well as the individual components of the resources. The resource ontology system further stores the authentication of the resources, including if the resources are validated for use within application development, as well as whether or not the resources meet or fail to meet other resource requirements. The resource ontology system allows a user developing an application to access resources for use in the application development, which are trusted resources, and allows the organization to aid in standardizing and optimizing the use of resources that users may use in developing applications. Furthermore, the resource ontology system allows the user to more easily access and use secondary resources that are linked with resources already used by the user for application development.
