Unified Software Content Transfer System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In IT environments, software and content are often transferred and integrated separately, leading to inconsistencies and increased costs due to redundant content recreation and handling, which affects system performance.
Innovation Solution
Developing a system where software and content are transferred together, with a content server ensuring consistency and only transferring relevant content, reducing duplication and improving performance by handling both in a single process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of energy
If software and content are transferred separately, then transfer flexibility is maintained, but handling costs increase and consistency cannot be ensured
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the transfer of software and content into a single unified process. The system creates a transferable form that includes both software and its associated content together, allowing them to be transferred in one operation rather than separately. This reduces handling costs and ensures consistency between software and content versions while maintaining transfer flexibility through the use of transferable forms that can be selectively created and transferred.
2Reliability
If all developed content is sent to each computer system, then content availability is ensured, but transfer volume increases and redundancy occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and transfers only the specific content that is actually used by the software, rather than transferring all developed content. The system identifies and creates transferable forms containing only the relevant content associated with each software package, ensuring content availability for the receiving system while minimizing transfer volume and eliminating redundancy of unused content.
3Manufacturing precision
If software and content are transferred independently, then transfer timing flexibility is maintained, but consistency between software and content cannot be ensured
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by creating transferable forms that package software and content together before transfer. This pre-packaging ensures that the correct versions of software and content are associated with each other in the transferable form, guaranteeing consistency upon transfer. The receiving system then receives the pre-configured package as a unit, maintaining both consistency and transfer timing flexibility.

AI summary
Software and content used by the software are developed on a first computer system for use on a second computer system. Transferable forms of the developed software and content that may be used by the second computer system are created. The transferable form of the developed software is made available for transfer to the second computer system. The transferable form of the developed content is transferred to a content server that makes a transferable form of content used by software running on the second computer system available for receipt by the second computer system. The transferable form of the developed software from the first computer system and the transferable form of the content from the content server are received at the second computer system. The received software and content are translated into usable forms of the software and content that may be used by the second computer system.
