Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If content providers increase their search engine rankings through providing contents that address needs of larger population, then visibility in search results is improved, but the complexity of analyzing and responding to diverse user search needs increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments search criteria into distinct categories (geographic information, category information, language information) and maintains separate counts for each combination. This segmentation allows the system to handle diverse user needs through modular counting and analysis, reducing the complexity of processing diverse search data while improving content accessibility.
2Measurement precision
If the system maintains counts of search instances for each unique combination of geographic, category, and language information, then the precision of search analysis is improved, but the quantity of data to be processed increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary organization of search criteria by associating each search criterion with geographic, category, and language information before counting. This preliminary action structures the data in advance, enabling precise analysis through organized combinations while managing data quantity through systematic categorization and efficient storage of count information.
Data Source
AI summary
Systems and methods for an information repository search system are disclosed. The system receives search criteria from users and associates the search criteria with source information. The source information identifies sources via which the search criteria are being received. The system further maintains counts of instances for the plurality of search criteria in association with the respective source information.
