Search Content Sharing With Source Traceability in Client Sessions
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing search functions on computing devices do not allow for the sharing of search content with other objects, preventing them from directly acquiring source information of the search content.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for sharing search content between clients, involving the display of target search content and a search identifier in a session page, along with the display of source information upon trigger, facilitated by a computing device with integrated memory and processors executing computer program instructions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If search content is shared between clients, then interaction efficiency is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a server as an intermediary to manage search content sharing between clients. The server receives search content from a first client, processes it, and distributes it to a second client. This intermediary approach enables efficient content sharing without requiring direct complex peer-to-peer communication between clients, thus improving interaction efficiency while managing system complexity through centralized server coordination.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements search content sharing by creating and transmitting copies of search results between clients. When a user performs a search, the search content is copied and sent to other clients through the server, allowing them to access the same information without duplicating the entire search process. This copying mechanism improves productivity by enabling quick information dissemination while keeping the system relatively simple.
2Loss of information
If source information is transmitted to second client, then information completeness is improved, but data loss is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the necessary search content and source information from the first client and transmits it to the second client, rather than transmitting entire datasets or redundant information. By extracting only the essential search results and source identifiers, the system achieves information completeness for the receiving client while minimizing the transmission of data and conservation of computer resources.
Solution Approach 2:
The server performs preliminary processing of search content before transmission to the second client. It pre-organizes and formats the search results, extracting key information in advance. This preliminary action ensures that when the source information is transmitted, it is already optimized and complete, reducing the need for additional processing at the receiving end and thereby conserving computer resources.
Data Source
AI summary
A search content sharing method includes: receiving a message transmitted by a first client, the message including a target search content, and the target search content being from a target search content of at least one search content that is searched by the first client and associated with search information; displaying the target search content and a search identifier corresponding to the target search content in a session page of a second client, the search identifier being used for identifying source information of the target search content; and displaying the source information corresponding to the target search content in response to a trigger operation for the search identifier, the source information including the at least one search content searched by the first client based on the search information.
