Interceptor Framework for WSRP Portal Content Delivery
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The implementation of the WSRP standard for delivering web portal content faces challenges in providing enhanced functionality and flexibility, particularly in managing interactions between consumer and producer systems, including error handling and data processing, which limits the value derived from remote portal installations.
Innovation Solution
The introduction of an interceptor framework that allows users to intercept and modify markup and user interaction-related messages between consumer and producer systems, enabling the implementation of public interceptor interfaces to control information flow and execute specific actions based on detected conditions, such as error handling and data manipulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the WSRP standard is implemented for delivering web portal content, then content delivery capability is improved, but functionality and flexibility are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an interceptor framework that acts as an intermediary layer between the WSRP standard implementation and the portal applications. This framework provides public interceptor interfaces that allow customization of information flow, error handling, and data processing without modifying the core WSRP standard, thereby enhancing functionality while maintaining standard compliance.
2Reliability
If the WSRP standard is implemented, then remote portal content delivery is enabled, but error handling and data processing capabilities are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The interceptor framework implements feedback mechanisms by allowing applications to intercept and examine information flow at multiple points. This enables custom error handling and data processing logic to be inserted into the standard WSRP workflow, improving reliability through customizable error management while maintaining the standard's core functionality.
3Productivity
If the WSRP standard is used, then remote portal installations are supported, but the value derived from these installations is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the information flow in remote portal communications into interceptable units that can be individually processed. By dividing the data flow into manageable segments that can be intercepted, examined, and modified at specific points, the system enhances the value of remote portal installations through customized processing while maintaining operational simplicity through a structured approach.
