Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If traditional authentication methods are used, then the authentication process is simple to implement, but the security and reliability of user authentication is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthentication securityVSAvoidauthentication system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The authentication system is segmented into multiple independent components: pattern creation module, pattern storage module (entity database and distributed development platform), pattern verification module, and interaction channel module. This segmentation allows the system to achieve high security through distributed verification while maintaining manageable complexity by separating concerns into distinct functional units.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

A distributed development platform acts as an intermediary between the entity database and the verification process. The platform stores pattern-based digital resources and provides verification capabilities without requiring the entity system to directly manage all authentication logic, thereby reducing system complexity while enhancing reliability through decentralized verification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If pattern-based verification is performed by comparing with both entity database and distributed development platform, then authentication reliability is improved, but processing time and system complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthentication reliabilityVSAvoidauthentication processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Patterns are pre-created and stored in both the entity database and the distributed development platform during the registration phase. This preliminary action ensures that verification can be performed quickly by comparing against pre-stored patterns, reducing authentication processing time while maintaining high reliability through dual-verification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates and stores copies of user patterns in multiple locations (entity database and distributed development platform). This copying strategy enables parallel verification processes to occur simultaneously across different storage locations, reducing overall verification time while enhancing reliability through multiple verification points.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

3Adaptability or versatility

If multiple interaction channels are supported, then system versatility is improved, but device complexity and coordination difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction channel versatilityVSAvoidmulti-channel system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The authentication system is designed with universal components that can handle multiple interaction channels (online, resource entity, third-party entity). The core pattern verification mechanism remains the same across all channels, with each channel adapting to its specific context. This multi-functionality approach allows the system to support diverse interaction modes without proportionally increasing complexity, as the underlying authentication logic remains unified.

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

AI summary

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for authenticating users via pattern based digital resources on a distributed development platform. In particular, the system may be configured to allow a user to create a pattern based digital resource, store the pattern based digital resource in an entity database associated with an entity system of an entity, determine that the user is initiating a real-time interaction using an interaction channel, prompt the user to provide a real-time pattern based digital resource via a component of a device associated with the interaction channel, verify the real-time pattern based digital resource received from the user, and authenticate the user to complete the real-time interaction via the interaction channel.
