Wagering Platform Latency Adaptation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wagering platforms face connectivity issues due to poor latency, leading to users being unable to select and confirm wagers before the market closes, and there is no mechanism to adjust content features accordingly.
Innovation Solution
A system that measures device latency, assigns a latency level, and optimizes content transmission by comparing it to a database, allowing for tailored content delivery based on the device's latency, including a latency module to measure latency, a content module to adjust content features, and databases to house latency and content levels.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple content features are provided on the wagering platform, then user engagement and functionality are improved, but connectivity issues and latency problems worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the content features provided to users based on their real-time latency measurements. The platform transitions from a static set of available features to a dynamic configuration that adapts to individual user connectivity conditions, reducing latency issues while maintaining functionality for each user's specific network environment
Solution Approach 2:
Different content features are provided to different users based on their individual latency characteristics. Instead of a uniform set of features for all users, the system tailors the content availability to match each user's specific network conditions, ensuring optimal performance for each local user environment
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple content features are provided on the wagering platform, then user engagement is improved, but wager placement speed worsens due to latency
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the content features provided to users based on their real-time latency measurements. The platform transitions from a static set of available features to a dynamic configuration that adapts to individual user connectivity conditions, reducing latency issues while maintaining functionality for each user's specific network environment
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides only the necessary content features required for timely wager placement rather than all available features simultaneously. By filtering and prioritizing content based on latency conditions, the system reduces the time needed for wager placement while maintaining essential functionality
3Adaptability or versatility
If the platform provides all available content features, then functionality is maximized, but device complexity and resource requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts and removes unnecessary content features from the platform based on individual user latency conditions. Instead of providing all available features to every user, the system selectively extracts only the essential features needed for each user's network environment, reducing complexity while maintaining necessary functionality
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides only the necessary content features required for timely wager placement rather than all available features simultaneously. By filtering and prioritizing content based on latency conditions, the system reduces the time needed for wager placement while maintaining essential functionality

AI summary
A method for optimizing wagering on a wagering network by determining the current latency of a mobile device, user device, etc., comparing the current latency to a database that provides the mobile device, user device, etc. with a latency level that is compared to a content database that lists the available content features of the wagering network that are associated with the latency level in order limit the user's issues on the wagering network that are caused by latency issues.
