Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a Super System on Chip integrates multiple functions including optical capabilities and AI processors, then system functionality and intelligence are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent integrates multiple previously separate functions into a single Super System on Chip, including CPU, GPU, AI processors, optical capabilities, and memory systems. This consolidation improves system functionality and adaptability while managing complexity through unified architecture design.
Solution Approach 2:
The Super System on Chip is designed as a universal platform capable of performing diverse functions across different applications including autonomous vehicles, wearable devices, and IoT systems. The multi-functional architecture allows a single chip to adapt to various use cases through configurable processing units and interfaces.
2Reliability
If autonomous operations with sensors and biosensors are implemented, then user safety and operational autonomy are improved, but system complexity and energy consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors vital signs and environmental conditions using integrated sensors and biosensors, performing preliminary detection of potential safety issues before they become critical. This proactive monitoring enables early intervention while managing energy through event-triggered processing rather than continuous full-system activation.
Solution Approach 2:
The Super System on Chip incorporates autonomous decision-making capabilities through AI processors that can independently analyze sensor data and execute safety protocols without external intervention. The system serves itself by automatically detecting anomalies, making decisions, and activating appropriate responses, reducing the need for external control systems.
3Speed
If real-time data processing and cloud connectivity are implemented, then responsiveness and user experience are improved, but data security requirements and system complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides data processing into multiple segments: local edge processing on the Super System on Chip for immediate responsiveness, and cloud-based processing for comprehensive analysis. This segmentation enables real-time responses for critical functions while maintaining data security through selective data transmission and distributed processing architecture.
Data Source
AI summary
A Super System is disclosed and its inputs/outputs are coupled with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI), wherein the Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) can be coupled with a first optical waveguide either in a two-dimensional (2-D) or in a three-dimensional (3-D) arrangement. The first optical waveguide can be then coupled with (i) a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and/or (ii) a second optical waveguide (that can include an optical resonator) either in a two-dimensional (2-D) or in a three-dimensional (3-D) arrangement. The Super System can include multipliers of matrices and/or graphic processors.
