Software Management Device for Model Term Conversion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing software management techniques struggle to convert and compare models created by different designers due to varying terms and abstraction levels, making it difficult to extract differences or common parts.
Innovation Solution
A software management device with an input unit, storage unit, and in-model name replacement unit that inputs and converts models by replacing terms and adjusting abstraction levels, allowing for hierarchical storage and comparison of functions and names.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If models are converted using existing conversion techniques, then the conversion process is simplified, but the terms and abstraction levels cannot be standardized, making comparison difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by transforming models through systematic replacement of terms and adjustment of abstraction levels. The conversion unit changes parameters such as term terminology and hierarchical depth to standardize models for comparison, resolving the contradiction between ease of conversion and standardization precision.
2Productivity
If models with different terms and abstraction levels are directly compared, then comparison is straightforward, but differences and common parts cannot be accurately extracted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by performing term standardization and abstraction level alignment before the actual comparison process. The conversion unit prepares models in advance by replacing terms and adjusting hierarchy depths, enabling both fast and accurate comparison and difference extraction afterward.
3Manufacturing precision
If advanced knowledge about each pattern is required for conversion, then conversion accuracy is maintained, but accessibility for designers is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by implementing automatic term replacement and abstraction level adjustment without requiring manual intervention or advanced knowledge from designers. The conversion unit autonomously processes model standardization, making the system accessible to designers while maintaining conversion accuracy through automated intelligent processing.

AI summary
A software management device capable of converting a term used in a model and an abstraction level thereof. The software management device includes an input unit that inputs a target model, a storage unit that hierarchically stores functions and/or names constituting the model, and an in-model name replacement unit that selects a corresponding function and/or name from the storage unit according to the input model input from the input unit, and replaces a function and/or a name in the input model with the selected function and/or name.
