Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional digital platforms for resource exchange reduce user engagement and resource utilization due to passive delegation and lack of flexibility, leading to decreased utilization of allocated resources.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that allows users to specify responder selection criteria and conditions for resource exchange, determining a suitable exchange responder based on these criteria, and performing the exchange accordingly, thereby enhancing user initiative and engagement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If resources are delegated to the digital platform for exchange, then resource exchange functionality is provided, but user engagement and resource utilization rate decrease due to passive delegation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveflexibility of resource exchangeVSAvoidresource utilization rate
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic responder selection by allowing requesters to specify selection criteria and enabling multiple candidate responders to compete for resource exchange opportunities. The system dynamically determines which responder gets selected based on predefined criteria rather than using a static, passive delegation model, thereby increasing both flexibility and utilization rate.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the parameter of responder selection from random or first-come-first-served to criterion-based selection. By introducing selectable parameters (responder selection criteria) that requesters can define, the system transforms the exchange mechanism to be more adaptive and efficient, resolving the contradiction between flexibility and utilization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If any user can exchange delegated resources on the digital platform, then resource exchange is facilitated, but the delegating party becomes passive and flexibility decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of resource exchangeVSAvoidflexibility for delegating party
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by having requesters pre-define responder selection criteria before the resource exchange occurs. This allows the delegating party to maintain control and flexibility over who can exchange their resources, while still enabling easy exchange operations for qualified users. The criteria are set in advance, ensuring both ease of operation and delegating party flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Productivity

If the digital platform allows open resource exchange, then user participation is possible, but user engagement decreases due to lack of control

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevolume of resources delegatedVSAvoiduser engagement
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the responder pool into candidate responders who meet predefined criteria and those who don't. By segmenting based on responder selection criteria, the system enables requesters to control which users can participate in resource exchange, thereby increasing engagement and the volume of delegated resources while maintaining ease of operation for qualified users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
