Radial Multidimensional Document Storage for Contract Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In the context of power projects, managing numerous contract documents is inefficient due to the lack of effective classification and visualization, leading to low document calling efficiency as users struggle to find specific documents within large folders organized by document names.
Innovation Solution
A core data-based storage method for radial multidimensional documents, which involves classifying documents by type and level, generating radial multidimensional display graphs to visually organize documents hierarchically, and establishing storage link paths for quick access, allowing users to call documents efficiently without manually searching through folders.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If documents are stored in a single folder arranged alphabetically by name, then the storage structure is simple, but the document calling efficiency is low and users cannot visually locate documents quickly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments documents into multiple folders based on document type information (e.g., contract documents, technical documents, management documents). Each folder contains documents of a specific type, allowing users to quickly locate documents by type rather than searching through all documents alphabetically. This segmentation resolves the contradiction by improving ease of operation through structured organization while managing complexity through systematic classification rules.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a new dimension of organization by adding document level information (first level, second level, etc.) to the traditional single-folder alphabetical arrangement. Documents are organized in hierarchical levels within type-based folders, creating a multi-dimensional storage structure. This allows users to navigate documents through multiple dimensions (type + level) simultaneously, dramatically improving document calling efficiency while the hierarchical structure provides a clear framework that manages complexity.
2Loss of information
If all documents are placed in the same folder, then the storage method is simple, but users cannot visually display and locate documents efficiently
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by assigning different organizational characteristics to different document types. Each document type folder has its own specific structure and classification rules tailored to that type. For example, contract documents may be organized by party involved, while technical documents may be organized by project phase. This localized organization preserves detailed location information for each document type while the overall systematic approach manages the complexity of the classification system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by pre-establishing document type categories and level hierarchies before documents are stored. The classification framework is prepared in advance with defined folders and structures, so that when documents are added, they can be quickly sorted into the appropriate locations without requiring complex real-time decision-making. This preliminary structuring preserves document location information while keeping the classification system manageable through predefined categories.
Data Source
AI summary
A core data-based storage method for radial multidimensional documents according to an embodiment includes classifying first documents with same document type information into a preset folder to obtain a classified folder; acquiring the total number of levels of document level information of all non-core documents; and displaying preset target images at core display positions and/or non-core display positions, and setting a corresponding storage link path for each of the displayed preset target images. The documents may be stored by classification and displayed visually.
