Cellular Phone Screen Element File Segmentation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing display information management systems for cellular phones face challenges in reducing processing load and network load due to storage capacity restrictions and inefficient transmission of screen elements, which leads to increased storage requirements and unnecessary data transfer.
Innovation Solution
A display information file that includes all necessary screen elements without unnecessary information, allowing for efficient generation and transmission of screens, reducing storage capacity needs on the terminal and network load by using a single file for screen display requests.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If elements of the same type are stored together as one file to reduce processing load, then processing load is reduced, but storage capacity required increases due to file headers and irrelevant information
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments display information into individual element files, where each screen element is stored as a separate file. This allows the terminal to download and store only the specific elements needed for a particular screen, avoiding the need to store entire grouped files with unnecessary elements and their associated headers.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts only the necessary display information elements from the server to the terminal device. By downloading individual elements rather than complete grouped files, the system extracts and stores only the relevant data needed for screen generation, eliminating unnecessary file headers and irrelevant element information.
2Adaptability or versatility
If individual element files are transmitted from server to terminal, then screen generation flexibility improves, but network load increases due to multiple file transmissions
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal element library on the server that stores standardized screen elements in a common format. These elements can be reused across multiple different screens and applications, allowing flexible screen generation while reducing network load through efficient element sharing and caching mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary organization of display elements on the server, categorizing and storing elements in a standardized format before transmission. This preliminary structuring allows the terminal to efficiently retrieve and assemble screens without requiring multiple separate transmission operations, reducing overall network load.
3Quantity of substance
If display information is downloaded from server to terminal, then storage capacity on terminal is reduced, but communication rate decreases due to network constraints
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a nested structure where individual element files are contained within larger screen configuration files. The terminal downloads these nested structures efficiently, storing only the essential element references and data needed for screen assembly, thereby minimizing terminal storage requirements while optimizing network transmission efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of information organization from complete file transmissions to selective element data transmission. By transmitting only the essential parameters and data needed to reconstruct elements on the terminal, the system reduces both the communication rate burden and the storage capacity required on the terminal device.

AI summary
A cellular phone (2) does not store information unnecessary for displaying a screen and transmits a screen display request including an identifier of a screen to be displayed next to a server apparatus (1). In response to the screen display request, the server apparatus (1) reads a display information file including screen elements for configuring the screen from a database and sends the file to the cellular phone (2). The cellular phone (2) generates a screen using the screen elements included in the display information file and displays the generated screen on a display device. The display information file is prepared as one file for each screen displayed on the cellular phone (2). The file includes information of all screen elements necessary for the screen and does not include information of any screen elements unnecessary for the screen.
