Solution Overview

Problem

Existing web page communication systems fail to selectively display information to invited participants, allowing access to all content without differentiation between shared and private data during collaboration sessions.

Innovation Solution

Implementing a system with an invitee detection module, usage monitoring, and content management to allow a presenter to share desktop content while excluding private content from attendees, using a customized web page architecture with modules for invitee detection, usage tracking, and content delivery.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If all content is displayed to invited participants on a web page, then information accessibility is improved, but data security deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation accessibilityVSAvoiddata security
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments content into different categories (shared content and private content) and displays them differently to invited participants. The system divides the web page content into multiple sections with different access levels, allowing participants to view only authorized content while preventing access to private information.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies local quality by making different parts of the web page have different display properties. Specifically, shared content is displayed normally to all invited participants, while private content is hidden or restricted to specific users. This allows selective visibility where each content element has its own access control characteristics.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Object-affected harmful factors

If selective content display is implemented, then data security is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata securityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service by automatically detecting which content should be shared versus private based on pre-configured settings. The system autonomously determines content classification and applies appropriate display rules without requiring manual intervention during each collaboration session, reducing operational complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring content classification and access rules before collaboration sessions begin. The system prepares the web page with marked shared and private content areas in advance, so that during actual use, the selective display mechanism simply follows predetermined rules rather than making complex real-time decisions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Object-affected harmful factors

If customized web page architecture is implemented, then information security is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation securityVSAvoidease of operation
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies universality by creating a standardized customized web page template that can be reused across multiple collaboration sessions and different content types. The same web page structure with shared and private content areas serves multiple purposes: presenting information, enforcing security, and maintaining consistency across different users and sessions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

In one embodiment, methods and apparatuses are provided for allowing an invited participant to access a customized web page; programming a first content for the invited participant; displaying the first content on the customized web page to the invited participant; and automatically displaying a second content to the invited participant based on displaying the first content to the invited participant.
