Solution Overview

Problem

Existing P2P network schemes rely on personal analysis and manual execution for resource pushing decisions, which is inefficient and skill-dependent, lacking automation in bandwidth management.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for automatically generating P2P network schemes by obtaining predicted data, determining a bandwidth managing scheme based on corresponding relationships, and executing it to manage bandwidth, thereby reducing personal analysis and execution processes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If manual personal analysis and execution are used for P2P resource pushing decisions, then flexibility and adaptability are maintained, but efficiency and productivity are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebandwidth management efficiencyVSAvoidautomation level
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by allowing the bandwidth management system to automatically analyze network data, generate pushing schemes, and execute resource distribution decisions without human intervention. The system serves itself by using its own collected data to make autonomous decisions about resource pushing timing and targets.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical manual analysis and decision-making process with an automated computational system. Instead of human operators manually analyzing network conditions and making pushing decisions, the system uses data analysis modules and scheme generation algorithms to automatically substitute human mechanical processes with automated electronic decision-making.

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

2Speed

If server bandwidth is increased to provide faster downloading speeds, then downloading speed is improved, but bandwidth cost and resource consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedownloading speedVSAvoidbandwidth consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
SpeedVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pushing resources to P2P nodes before the actual download demand occurs. The bandwidth management system analyzes predicted download patterns and proactively distributes resources to potential downloaders in advance, so when download requests arrive, the resources are already available in the P2P network, eliminating the need for increased server bandwidth during peak download times.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces P2P nodes as intermediaries between the server and end users. Instead of direct server-to-user downloads that consume server bandwidth, the system uses P2P nodes as intermediate distribution points that have already received resources through pushing. These intermediaries then share resources with other users, reducing direct server bandwidth consumption while maintaining high download speeds.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Loss of energy

If P2P pushing is implemented to save server bandwidth, then bandwidth cost is reduced, but decision-making complexity and scheme generation difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebandwidth costVSAvoidscheme generation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the complex bandwidth management task into distinct functional modules: data collection module, data analysis module, scheme generation module, and execution module. Each module handles a specific aspect of the pushing decision process, breaking down the overall complexity into manageable, specialized components that can be developed and maintained independently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system manages complexity by changing and optimizing key parameters such as pushing timing, target node selection, and resource priority levels. The scheme generation module adjusts these parameters based on analyzed network conditions and download patterns, transforming complex qualitative decisions into quantifiable parameter optimizations that can be systematically managed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Various embodiments provide methods, apparatus, and systems for generating P2P network schemes. In an exemplary method for generating a P2P network scheme, predicted data can be obtained and used to determine a bandwidth managing scheme of the predicted data, based on a corresponding relationship between predicted data and bandwidth managing schemes. The bandwidth managing scheme can be executed and be used to automatically determine schemes, e.g., for pushing resources into the P2P network.
