Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face inefficiencies in communication due to the need to switch between applications on smart devices, leading to delayed message reception and disrupted user experiences, as existing methods do not consider the state of the receiver device when sending information.
Innovation Solution
An information sending method and apparatus that acquire state information of a receiver device to determine an optimal sending policy, ensuring information is delivered without altering the receiver's current state, thereby improving user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If information is sent immediately without considering receiver device state, then communication speed is improved, but user experience deteriorates due to disturbances and interruptions
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary acquisition of receiver device state information before sending information. The sending apparatus queries the receiver's current state (such as whether the screen is on, what application is running, battery level) in advance, and based on this pre-obtained state data, determines the appropriate sending policy. This preliminary action allows the system to prepare an optimized sending strategy without delaying the communication process.
Solution Approach 2:
The sending policy is made dynamic and adaptive based on the receiver's real-time state. Instead of using a fixed sending mechanism, the system adjusts the sending strategy dynamically according to the acquired state information. For example, if the receiver is in a meeting mode or the screen is off, the system dynamically modifies the sending approach (such as delaying notification, using subtle indicators, or sending to a different device) to match the current context, thereby maintaining both speed and user experience.
2Reliability
If users switch between applications to check messages, then information reception is improved, but communication efficiency deteriorates due to delayed response
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the receiver device continuously provides state information back to the sending apparatus. The receiver monitors its own state (application context, usage patterns, availability) and feeds this information back to the sender. Based on this feedback, the sending apparatus adjusts its sending policy to optimize communication efficiency. For instance, if feedback indicates the receiver is actively using a messaging application, the system can prioritize delivery and notification, thereby improving response time without compromising information reception reliability.
3Speed
If information is delivered without considering current device state, then delivery speed is improved, but device state stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameters of information delivery based on the receiver device state. Instead of maintaining a constant delivery approach, the system modifies delivery parameters (such as notification timing, notification intensity, delivery channel, or even the format of information) according to the acquired state parameters. For example, if the device state shows low battery level, the system may change the delivery parameter to use less energy-consuming notification methods. This parameter adaptation allows fast delivery while maintaining device state stability.
