Application Resource Library Segmentation for Secure Sharing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to effectively isolate and manage resources for different applications, leading to resource conflicts, leakages, and security issues such as virus infections due to shared resource libraries.
Innovation Solution
A resource management method that creates user-specific application resource libraries, allowing applications to access only their designated libraries and enabling controlled sharing of resources between them, ensuring isolation and secure management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If users access the same resources when operating different applications, then resource sharing is achieved, but resource conflicts, leakages or virus infections occur easily
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the resource library into multiple isolated resource libraries, with each resource library corresponding to a specific application. This segmentation allows different applications to access their own dedicated resources while preventing unauthorized access to other applications' resources, thus resolving the contradiction between resource sharing and resource security.
2Reliability
If resources are isolated for different applications, then resource security is improved, but resource sharing becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a resource management module as an intermediary that manages multiple isolated resource libraries. This mediator enables controlled resource sharing between applications by mediating access requests, thus maintaining resource security while facilitating necessary resource sharing.
3Device complexity
If a single resource library is used for all applications, then device complexity is reduced, but resource conflicts and leakages occur
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates multiple resource libraries that follow a unified management structure, where each resource library serves a specific application but all are managed by the same resource management module. This universal management approach maintains system simplicity while achieving effective resource isolation through the multi-functional resource libraries.

AI summary
Disclosed are a resource management method and a computing system. The resource management method comprises: creating a first user application resource library, and when a first user operates a first application, allowing the first application to access the first user application resource library; creating a third user application resource library, and when the first user operates a second application, allowing the second application to access the third user application resource library; and in response to a management operation performed by the first user on resources in the first user application resource library, directly or indirectly transmitting the resources in the first user application resource library to the third user application resource library. Independent resource libraries are configured according to applications operated by users, such that both resource isolation and resource sharing are realized.
