Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If custom design deployment is used, then network requirements can be met, but deployment time and cost increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvenetwork requirement fulfillmentVSAvoiddeployment time

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-building and pre-configuring network solutions before deployment. The system identifies deployment environments, selects from predefined network solution templates, and prepares configuration packages in advance, eliminating the need for time-consuming custom design and development during actual deployment.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments network deployment into standardized templates and configurations. Instead of building custom networks from scratch, the system divides network functions into discrete, pre-defined templates that can be selectively combined and deployed independently, reducing overall deployment complexity and time.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If custom design deployment is used, then specific network needs are addressed, but deployment cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvenetwork need customizationVSAvoiddeployment cost

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements universality through standardized network solution templates that can serve multiple deployment scenarios. These templates are designed to be multi-functional and adaptable, allowing a single template to address different network needs through configuration parameters rather than requiring separate custom builds for each scenario.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system achieves customization through parameter changes rather than custom design. Predefined network solution templates are configured by adjusting parameters such as scale, location, and specific functionality requirements, which allows cost-effective customization without the expense of building custom solutions from scratch.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

3Adaptability or versatility

If custom design deployment is used, then network functionality is tailored, but error rate increases due to complexity

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvenetwork functionality tailoringVSAvoiddeployment error rate

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by performing all network configuration, validation, and testing in advance during template development. This ensures that configurations are verified before deployment, significantly reducing the error rate during actual implementation while maintaining the ability to tailor network functionality through parameter adjustment.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses copying by deploying standardized network solution templates that have been previously validated and tested. Instead of creating custom networks that are prone to errors, the system copies proven templates and adapts them through parameter changes, ensuring reliability while maintaining functionality tailoring capabilities.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #26Copying

4Ease of manufacture

If integration with legacy platforms is required, then existing infrastructure is utilized, but deployment complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvelegacy platform utilizationVSAvoiddeployment complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of manufactureVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments network deployment into modular templates that can be independently configured and deployed. This modular approach allows legacy platforms to be integrated as separate components within the overall network solution, reducing the complexity of integrating multiple systems by breaking them down into manageable, standardized units.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation
