Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional dynamic partition customization methods result in excessive server resource occupancy when customizing large dynamic partitions for multiple clients, as they require downloading and processing entire OEM image files.

Innovation Solution

Generating a plurality of OEM image files at compile time and creating a scatter loading file to record OEM image sub-file segments, allowing for the download and customization of only the necessary sub-file segments when user requirements change.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the entire dynamic partition is customized for each client, then the customization completeness is improved, but the server resource occupancy increases excessively

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecustomization completenessVSAvoidserver resource occupancy

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the OEM image file into multiple sub-file segments and creates a scatter loading file to record these segments. Instead of transferring the entire OEM image file for each client, the system only transfers the required sub-file segments based on client-specific requirements. This segmentation approach reduces server resource occupancy while maintaining customization completeness.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts only the necessary sub-file segments from the OEM image file for each client based on their specific requirements. The scatter loading file stores metadata about which segments are needed, allowing the system to extract and transfer only those specific segments rather than the entire image file, thereby reducing server resource consumption.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Manufacturing precision

If the entire OEM image file is downloaded for each client, then the customization accuracy is improved, but the development and version compilation time increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecustomization accuracyVSAvoiddevelopment and version compilation time

Core Design Contradiction:

Manufacturing precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the OEM image file into smaller sub-file segments and uses a scatter loading file to track which segments correspond to which client requirements. This allows the system to compile and customize only the necessary segments for each client rather than processing the entire image file, significantly reducing compilation time while maintaining accuracy.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary actions by pre-dividing the OEM image file into sub-file segments and pre-creating the scatter loading file with metadata about segment requirements before actual customization. This preliminary organization allows for faster, more efficient customization processes without needing to re-process the entire image file for each client.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If the entire dynamic partition is processed for each client, then the customization completeness is improved, but the data transfer volume increases excessively

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecustomization completenessVSAvoiddata transfer volume

Core Design Contradiction:

Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the OEM image file into smaller sub-file segments and uses a scatter loading file to record which segments are required for each client. This segmentation enables the system to transfer only the necessary segments for each client rather than the entire image file, significantly reducing data transfer volume while maintaining customization completeness.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts and transfers only the specific sub-file segments needed for each client based on their requirements, as recorded in the scatter loading file. This extraction approach minimizes data transfer volume by sending only the essential portions of the image file rather than the complete file for each client.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
