Solution Overview

Problem

Current presence services in communication networks only provide limited status information input by users and do not offer a seamless service based on the status information of called parties, lacking the ability to acquire detailed status information and conveniently share it.

Innovation Solution

An apparatus and method that automatically extracts and updates presence information, including application and content indication information, to provide detailed status information and enable content sharing through a presence service in a communication network, allowing users to share identified contents based on acquired status information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If traditional presence service provides only user-input status information, then system complexity is reduced, but information detail and service capability are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepresence information detailVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by automatically extracting application execution information and content indication information before user requests, preparing detailed presence information in advance. This resolves the contradiction by having the system proactively gather and organize comprehensive information (including app names, execution states, content types, and URLs) rather than waiting for user input, thereby enriching information detail while maintaining automated processing that doesn't significantly increase perceived system complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The presence service enables self-service by automatically monitoring application execution states and extracting relevant information without requiring manual user input. The system serves itself by autonomously generating detailed presence information from its own environment (monitored applications), which resolves the contradiction by eliminating the need for complex user interaction interfaces while providing rich information detail through automated self-monitoring and self-reporting mechanisms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Adaptability or versatility

If presence service provides detailed application and content information, then service capability is enhanced, but information processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice capabilityVSAvoidinformation processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The presence information is segmented into distinct components: application information (app name, execution state) and content indication information (content type, URL). This segmentation resolves the contradiction by organizing complex information into manageable, standardized segments that can be processed independently. The presence server receives and processes these segmented information units separately, enhancing service capability through detailed information while keeping processing complexity manageable through structured segmentation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The presence service achieves universality by handling multiple types of information (application execution status, content types, URLs) through a single integrated framework. The system universally processes various applications and content formats using the same information extraction and transmission mechanisms, which resolves the contradiction by providing versatile service capability across different applications and content types without requiring separate complex processing paths for each type

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

3Measurement precision

If automatic presence information extraction is implemented, then information accuracy is improved, but system resource consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestatus information accuracyVSAvoidsystem resource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts only the essential and relevant information elements from application execution environments, such as application names, execution states, content types, and URLs. This selective extraction resolves the contradiction by focusing computational resources on extracting only the most important status indicators rather than processing all possible application data, thereby maintaining high information accuracy while minimizing unnecessary resource consumption through targeted extraction of critical presence information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
