Solution Overview

Problem

Current dynamic order management systems rely heavily on phone calls and instant messaging, leading to leaks of confidential information, inefficiencies, miscommunication, and unfulfilled orders due to delays and preemptive actions by parties.

Innovation Solution

A multi-system paradigm that bifurcates data into protected and unprotected categories, obfuscates sensitive information, and uses an execution system to manage and execute dynamic orders without direct data transmission between servers, reducing the risk of interception and network congestion.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If phone calls and instant messaging are used for order management, then communication between parties is established, but confidential information leaks and security is compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication capabilityVSAvoidinformation leakage
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the order management process into distinct phases: order submission, matching, and execution. Confidential information is segregated and only revealed when necessary for execution, preventing premature leakage through communication channels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an intermediary matching system that acts as a mediator between buyers and sellers. This intermediary handles all communications and information exchange, preventing direct contact that could lead to information leakage while maintaining operational capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If direct data transmission between servers is implemented, then data accessibility is improved, but network congestion and interception risk increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata accessibilityVSAvoidnetwork congestion
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a central matching server as an intermediary that all data transmissions must pass through. This consolidates network traffic through a single controlled point, reducing overall network congestion while maintaining data accessibility through the intermediary.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system merges all data transmission paths through a single matching server, consolidating multiple potential transmission routes into one controlled channel. This reduces network congestion by eliminating redundant transmissions while maintaining accessibility through the centralized hub.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Loss of information

If confidential information is transmitted to all parties, then order visibility is improved, but preemptive actions and unfair advantages occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation visibilityVSAvoidfairness of execution
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by providing different information visibility to different parties at different times. The matching server selectively reveals information only to parties whose orders are being executed, maintaining fairness by ensuring no party has premature access to confidential information that could enable preemptive actions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary matching and validation of orders before any confidential information is revealed to parties. This preliminary action ensures that all orders are verified and matched beforehand, preventing unfair advantages while maintaining necessary information visibility for execution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

4Adaptability or versatility

If multiple data transmissions occur between discrete servers, then system flexibility is maintained, but storage requirements and network load increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem flexibilityVSAvoiddata storage volume
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the data storage function into a centralized matching server that maintains a single copy of order data. Discrete servers reference this centralized data rather than maintaining separate copies, reducing total storage requirements while preserving system flexibility through the centralized coordination point.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

A method for safeguarding data in dynamic relational order management involves receiving a data feed and a dynamic order with various order attributes, including a protected dataset and an unprotected dataset. The protected dataset, containing a request type and a reserve execution threshold, is obfuscated from display on a respondent system. Instructions are transmitted to the respondent system to present a proposal request dataset for executing the dynamic order, comprising the unprotected dataset and the data feed. A proposal response dataset is received from the respondent system, including first and second execution values. Adjusted values are generated based on the received data, and an execution action is performed when the adjusted execution values meet the adjusted reserve execution threshold.
