Solution Overview

Problem

Integrating disparate reporting sources from different channels of resource ingestion into a physical resource control system is challenging due to varying data formats and regulatory compliance requirements, leading to complexity and inefficiency.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a translation layer with an application programming interface (API) and a rules engine to standardize and validate data from various ingestion terminals, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards without modifying the underlying system infrastructure.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If disparate reporting sources from different channels are integrated into the physical resource control system, then the system can monitor and allocate resources from multiple channels, but the varying data formats and regulatory compliance requirements lead to increased system complexity

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveintegration capabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary component (translation layer with API and rules engine) that sits between the disparate reporting sources and the core control system. This intermediary standardizes data from multiple channels into a common format, handling format variations and compliance requirements without modifying the underlying system infrastructure, thereby enabling multi-channel integration while containing system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system architecture is segmented into distinct layers: the translation layer (with API and rules engine) handles data standardization and compliance, while the core control system focuses on resource management. This segmentation allows each component to specialize in specific functions, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining integration capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Reliability

If a translation layer with API and rules engine is implemented to standardize data, then regulatory compliance is ensured, but the data processing pipeline becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveregulatory complianceVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The translation layer performs preliminary actions by standardizing and validating data before it enters the core control system. The rules engine pre-processes data to ensure compliance with regulatory standards, catching and correcting issues early in the data pipeline. This preliminary action ensures compliance while keeping the downstream processing simpler.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The rules engine operates autonomously to validate and standardize incoming data according to predefined regulatory requirements. It self-manages the compliance checking process without requiring manual intervention or complex external validation systems, ensuring reliability while maintaining manageable processing complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Measurement precision

If data from multiple ingestion terminals is standardized using a template, then accurate reporting is achieved, but the mapping process requires significant processing effort

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereporting accuracyVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system transforms data from various formats into a standardized template format by changing parameters such as data structure, field names, and data types. The API and rules engine automatically perform these parameter transformations, ensuring accurate reporting while minimizing manual mapping effort through automated parameter conversion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

System and techniques to track the ingestion of resources described herein. A device can receive a connection from a reporting entity at an intake interface of the device. A set of data that includes a representation of a resource involved in a transaction can be received over the connection. This received data can be mapped via an intake interface into fields of a template. Based on a first field of the template, a connection to an external service can be made to retrieve a value to complete a second field of the template. A ruled engine can be applied to modify the first field of the template or the second field of the template to create a compliant template that can be aggregated with other compliant templates to produce a report of a class of transactions that includes the transaction.
