Technology Recommendation System for Component Tracking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The rapid pace of technological change makes it difficult for software products to keep track of various technologies and technological components, leading to issues such as security concerns, unsupported components, and unsuitable technology selections during architecture creation, as there is no centralized repository for real-time information access and management.
Innovation Solution
A system and method using natural language processing (NLP) to derive and map technology factors and asset factors, assigning scores to technology assets for real-time recommendations, facilitating the selection of suitable technology components based on sustenance, common use, resource availability, performance, security, and automation factors.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If software products are continuously updated with newer technology versions, then technological capabilities are enhanced, but tracking and managing various technology components becomes increasingly difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a centralized repository as an intermediary system that stores and manages information about technology components, versions, and relationships. This repository acts as a mediator between the complex technology ecosystem and the software product, enabling automated tracking and management without increasing operational complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual tracking and monitoring of technology components with automated computational systems. Algorithms automatically scan, identify, and track technology components and their versions, substituting mechanical human effort with automated digital processes that scale efficiently
2Productivity
If the pace of technology change is accelerated, then software capabilities are improved, but security issues and unsupported components arise
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by proactively scanning and identifying technology components before security issues or support problems arise. The system continuously monitors technology components and their versions, detecting potential security vulnerabilities and unsupported components in advance, allowing preventive measures to be taken before problems impact the software
Solution Approach 2:
The patent establishes feedback loops where the system continuously monitors technology components, compares them against known security databases and support status, and provides real-time alerts and recommendations. This feedback mechanism enables rapid response to security issues and ensures technology components remain supported and secure
3Power
If technology components are frequently updated, then software performance is enhanced, but license information and compliance requirements change
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the tracking of technology components with the management of license information and compliance requirements into a single integrated system. The centralized repository stores both technical component data and associated license information together, ensuring that updates to technology components automatically trigger updates to their corresponding license and compliance data, preventing information loss

AI summary
This disclosure relates generally to method and system for technology recommendation for technology assets. Technology assets typically face technical challenges due to security issues arising due to underlying technology components, one or more technology components no longer supported, license information modified, and so on. The disclosed method overcomes these challenges by providing technology recommendations for the technology assets by assign a first ranking to technology factors corresponding to technology components of various assets, and a second ranking to each of asset factors corresponding to each of technology assets. Multiple mapping matrices corresponding to the technology assets are derived based on the technology and asset factors. A mapping matrix corresponding to technology asset is indicative of relative relevance of the technology factors with respect to asset factors. A mapping score is assigned to technology assets against each technology component based on the mapping matrices, which is used for recommending technology assets
