Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional translation systems face inefficiencies in handling large volumes of data, leading to increased costs, management complexity, performance issues, and difficulty in predicting costs accurately for large-scale translation projects, with static approaches failing to adapt to fluctuating data volumes and causing throttling when translation requests exceed certain thresholds.

Innovation Solution

A dynamic scenario calculator prioritizes translation requests based on attributes such as contextual information, frequency, size, and language configuration, assigning weights to determine a weighted score for ranking and optimizing the transmission of requests to a data translation engine, allowing for a custom solution that adapts to the expected rate and size of translation.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If translation requests are handled in conventional static order, then system simplicity is maintained, but translation service efficiency deteriorates due to throttling and inability to adapt to fluctuating data volumes

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetranslation service efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic prioritization of translation requests based on multiple attributes including data size, translation language pair, contextual information, and urgency. The system calculates priority scores dynamically for each incoming request and adjusts processing order accordingly, allowing the translation service to adapt to fluctuating data volumes and characteristics rather than using static FIFO processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the processing parameters by introducing a priority scoring mechanism that evaluates multiple attributes of each translation request. Instead of processing requests in a fixed order, the system transforms the processing approach by calculating composite priority scores based on data size, language pair complexity, contextual urgency, and other factors, thereby optimizing translation service efficiency

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Productivity

If infrastructure is scaled to handle large volumes of translation requests, then translation capacity is improved, but costs increase and management complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetranslation capacityVSAvoidmanagement complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the approach to handling large volumes by introducing parameter-based prioritization instead of uniform processing. The system evaluates multiple parameters including data size, language pair, contextual information, and urgency to dynamically adjust processing order. This allows the existing infrastructure to handle variable workloads efficiently without requiring proportional scaling, thereby reducing management complexity and costs

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If all translation requests are processed equally, then fairness is maintained, but translation service efficiency deteriorates due to inability to prioritize urgent or important requests

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetranslation service efficiencyVSAvoidrequest processing fairness
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by treating different translation requests differently based on their specific attributes. Instead of uniform processing, the system evaluates each request's data size, language pair complexity, contextual information, and urgency to assign appropriate priority levels. This ensures that urgent or important requests receive preferential processing while maintaining fair treatment based on objective criteria

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

4Reliability

If translation requests are queued in static order, then system simplicity is maintained, but translation quality deteriorates due to throttling when requests exceed certain thresholds

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetranslation qualityVSAvoidqueue management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic queue management by calculating priority scores for each incoming translation request based on multiple attributes including data size, language pair, contextual information, and urgency. The system dynamically adjusts the processing order based on these priority scores, allowing urgent requests to bypass the standard queue and be processed immediately, thereby preventing throttling and maintaining translation quality

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics
