Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
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
Engineering 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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
Data Source
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.
