Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems face challenges in managing time-varying resource pools, particularly in tracking overall resource pool status and identifying sufficiency for recurring or non-recurring transactions, especially when data records originate from multiple sources and fluctuate over time, making it difficult to provide accurate resource allocation forecasts.

Innovation Solution

A system and method that includes a processor and memory configured to obtain time-series data sets, identify recurring and additional resource allocations, determine a forecasted resource pool value, and generate a user interface displaying scaled resource allocation values based on this forecast, using services like model orchestrator, recurring transaction service, and time-series forecasting service to manage and visualize resource pool dynamics.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional resource tracking systems are used to monitor resource pool status, then basic tracking functionality is provided, but the systems cannot accurately forecast resource allocations or determine sufficiency for transactions due to inability to handle time-varying data from multiple sources

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource pool status tracking accuracyVSAvoidability to handle time-varying data from multiple sources
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements dynamic user interfaces that automatically update based on forecasted resource pool values. The interface elements change in real-time as the resource pool fluctuates, providing current status information without requiring manual refreshes. This dynamic adaptation allows the system to handle time-varying data effectively while maintaining accurate tracking.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs feedback mechanisms where forecasted resource pool values trigger automatic updates to the user interface. When the resource pool status changes or reaches certain thresholds, the system provides feedback through updated display elements, enabling continuous monitoring and accurate tracking of resource allocations from multiple sources.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If detailed time-series data from multiple sources is analyzed to improve forecast accuracy, then resource allocation predictions become more precise, but the system complexity and computational requirements increase significantly

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource allocation forecast accuracyVSAvoidsystem architecture complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the complex analysis task into distinct functional services: a model orchestrator that coordinates the overall process, a recurring transaction service that handles periodic allocations, and a time-series forecasting service that processes historical data. This segmentation allows each component to specialize in specific aspects of data analysis, improving forecast accuracy while managing system complexity through modular design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The forecasted resource pool value serves multiple functions simultaneously: it updates the user interface display, triggers alerts when thresholds are reached, informs transaction sufficiency determinations, and guides resource allocation decisions. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate systems for each task, thereby managing complexity while maintaining high forecast accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Loss of information

If the system continuously updates the user interface with real-time resource pool values, then users have access to current information for decision-making, but the energy consumption and processing load increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetimeliness of resource status informationVSAvoidenergy consumption for continuous updates
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements periodic updates of the user interface based on forecasted resource pool values rather than continuous real-time updates. The interface refreshes at intervals determined by the forecasting service, providing timely information for decision-making while reducing unnecessary processing and energy consumption associated with constant updates.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the update frequency parameter dynamically based on resource pool volatility and user needs. When the resource pool is stable, updates occur less frequently, conserving energy. When volatility increases or critical thresholds are approached, the update frequency increases to provide more timely information, optimizing the balance between information timeliness and energy consumption.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

System and method for facilitating management of a time-varying resource pool are provided. The system includes a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory stores processor-executable instructions that, when executed, configure the processor to: obtain a time-series data set including data entries associated with one or more consumed resources; identify one or more recurring resource allocations based on recurring data entries of the time-series data set; identify additional resource allocations based on irregularly-timed data entries of the time-series data set; determine a forecasted resource pool value based on a combination of the identified recurring resource allocations and the additional resource allocations; and upon detection of a trigger condition, generate data for display, via a user interface, a scaled resource allocation value based on the forecasted resource pool value.
