Telephone Book Data Processor Concurrent Transfer Utilization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for transferring telephone book data between a cell phone and an in-vehicle device lack operability, as they cannot simultaneously execute data transfer and utilization processes, preventing users from browsing or making calls using the transferred data and recognizing incoming caller information.
Innovation Solution
A telephone book data processor with a controller that manages multiple memory regions for independent data transfer and utilization processes, allowing simultaneous execution of data transfer and utilization processes while connecting to an external device via short-range communication protocols like Bluetooth, enabling seamless data storage and usage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the in-vehicle device executes only telephone book data transfer process, then data transfer is completed, but telephone book data utilization is prevented
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the telephone book data memory into multiple independent memory regions (first telephone book data memory region and second telephone book data memory region). This segmentation allows the data transfer process to operate on one region while the utilization process operates on another region simultaneously, resolving the contradiction between completing data transfer and enabling data utilization.
2Ease of operation
If the in-vehicle device executes only telephone book data utilizing process, then telephone book data can be browsed and used, but data transfer from external device is prevented
Solution Approach 1:
By segmenting the memory into multiple independent regions, the system can simultaneously execute data transfer to one region while utilizing data from another region, eliminating the need to choose between data transfer completion and data utilization capability.
3Device complexity
If a single memory region is used for telephone book data, then memory structure is simple, but simultaneous data transfer and utilization cannot be executed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces multiple telephone book data memory regions to enable simultaneous independent execution of data transfer and utilization processes. This segmentation adds minimal structural complexity while fundamentally enabling concurrent operations that were previously mutually exclusive.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent resolves the temporal conflict between data transfer and utilization by introducing a spatial dimension through multiple memory regions. This allows both processes to operate in parallel by accessing different memory regions, transforming a sequential constraint into a parallel opportunity.

AI summary
A telephone book data processor includes: a connection element for connecting to an external device via a short range communication manner to transfer a telephone book data; a telephone book data obtaining element for obtaining the telephone book data; a memory having multiple memory regions for storing the telephone book data; and a controller for executing a telephone book data transfer process and a telephone book data utilizing process. The controller defines one memory region as an object of the telephone book data transfer process and another memory region as an object of the telephone book data utilizing process. The controller executes the telephone book data utilizing process with using the telephone book data in the another memory region while the controller executes the telephone book data transfer process for storing a new telephone book data in the one memory region.
