Solution Overview

Problem

Users face inconvenience when accessing multiple Internet pages on mobile terminals, as each page must be viewed separately in different windows or tabs, requiring frequent switching between them.

Innovation Solution

A method for displaying Internet pages on a mobile terminal that allows partial content of multiple pages to be selectively displayed on a single user-defined screen, with adjustable screen areas that can change position and size based on user input, enabling convenient viewing of various information types without constant window or tab switching.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If multiple Internet pages are displayed on separate windows or tabs, then each page can be viewed independently, but user convenience deteriorates due to frequent switching between windows or tabs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser convenienceVSAvoidtime for switching between pages
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple Internet pages into a single window by displaying content from different pages within divided screen areas. Instead of requiring separate windows or tabs for each page, the system merges multiple page contents into one unified display area, allowing users to view and interact with multiple pages simultaneously without switching between windows or tabs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Area of stationary object

If the entire Internet page is displayed on the screen, then complete information is available, but screen area utilization deteriorates when displaying multiple pages

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescreen area utilizationVSAvoidcomplete page information
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the screen into multiple display areas, with each area showing a portion of different Internet pages. This segmentation allows efficient utilization of the screen real estate by distributing multiple page contents across divided regions rather than requiring one page per full screen.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts and displays only the necessary or relevant portions of each Internet page within the divided screen areas. Instead of displaying entire pages that would require excessive screen space, the system selectively extracts and presents key content from multiple pages within the available screen real estate.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Adaptability or versatility

If fixed screen areas are used for displaying page content, then layout stability is maintained, but adaptability deteriorates when users need to adjust display preferences

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser preference adaptationVSAvoidscreen layout stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic screen areas that can be freely adjusted by users in terms of position and size. Unlike fixed layouts, the display areas can be dynamically repositioned and resized according to user preferences, allowing the system to adapt to different viewing requirements while maintaining operational stability through user-controlled parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

Information may be displayed on a mobile terminal by receiving information of a first Internet page, displaying the information on a first screen of a display, designating a first area of the first Internet page displayed on the first screen, and displaying the designated first area of the first Internet page on a second screen of the display.
