LIVE DEMONSTRATION ASSISTANCE PROVIDING MORE RELIABLE OUTPUT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17943411 titled 'LIVE DEMONSTRATION ASSISTANCE PROVIDING MORE RELIABLE OUTPUT
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the abstract allows for a more reliable output during live product demonstrations by automatically switching to a standby server if the main server fails.
- Initiates live product demonstration on client system by executing function on live demonstration server
- Saves breakpoint if function fails during demonstration
- Checks availability of standby demonstration server
- Automatically continues demonstration from breakpoint on standby server if available
- Returns error message if standby server is not available
- Resumes demonstration on live server if it is recovered
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries where live product demonstrations are conducted, such as software development, electronics, and consumer goods.
Problems Solved
1. Ensures a more reliable output during live product demonstrations 2. Minimizes disruptions in case of server failures 3. Improves overall user experience during demonstrations
Benefits
1. Increased reliability in live demonstrations 2. Seamless transition to standby server in case of failures 3. Enhanced user satisfaction with product demonstrations
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Live Product Demonstrations for Enhanced Reliability
Original Abstract Submitted
A method for providing more reliable output when conducting a live product demonstration is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method initiates, on a client system, a live product demonstration by executing a function on a live demonstration server. In the event the function fails, the method saves a breakpoint associated with the live product demonstration. The method checks the availability of a standby demonstration server. In the event the standby demonstration server is available, the method automatically continues, from the breakpoint, the live product demonstration by executing the function on the standby demonstration server. If the standby demonstration server is not available, the method may return an error message to the client system. In the event the live demonstration server is recovered, the method may resume the live product demonstration by executing the function on the live demonstration server. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
