Solution Overview

Problem

Current systems lack the ability to generate user-specific self-executing data structures that can automatically execute and enforce contractual agreements without the need for intermediaries, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs in transaction verification.

Innovation Solution

A processor-based system that analyzes user profiles to classify users into specific designations and generates self-executing records, utilizing cryptographic techniques and machine learning to create decentralized, immutable data structures that automate contractual enforcement on a blockchain platform.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional intermediary-based systems are used for contractual enforcement, then transaction verification can be performed with established trust mechanisms, but transaction costs increase and processing efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetransaction processing efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements self-executing contracts that automatically enforce contractual provisions without human intervention. Smart contracts monitor triggering events and automatically perform contractual obligations, eliminating the need for intermediaries to verify and enforce agreements. This self-service mechanism directly improves transaction processing efficiency while reducing system complexity by removing intermediary layers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces a blockchain-based decentralized ledger as a new intermediary that replaces traditional centralized intermediaries. This mediator provides transparent, immutable record-keeping and automated enforcement through smart contracts, achieving both improved efficiency and reduced complexity compared to traditional intermediary systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If user-specific self-executing data structures are generated through analysis of user profiles, then contractual enforcement becomes more personalized and accurate, but data processing requirements and system complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser classification accuracyVSAvoiddata processing energy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary classification of users into designations before contract execution. By analyzing user profiles in advance and categorizing users based on their characteristics, the system prepares self-executing data structures that are ready for immediate automated enforcement. This preliminary action improves classification accuracy while reducing real-time processing energy consumption during contract execution.

Inventive Principle:
