GROUP CHAT-BASED INSTANT MESSAGING METHOD AND APPARATUS, DEVICE, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18521475 titled 'GROUP CHAT-BASED INSTANT MESSAGING METHOD AND APPARATUS, DEVICE, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for converting and transmitting messages in a group chat-based instant messaging system based on the identity information of the user sending the message.

  • The method determines if the user is authorized to send the message based on their identity information.
  • If authorized, the message is converted based on a second messaging protocol and transmitted to all group members in a preset announcement style.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various group messaging platforms to ensure authorized users can send messages in a specific style to all group members.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures only authorized users can send messages to all group members. 2. Facilitates protocol conversion for seamless communication across different messaging services.

Benefits

1. Enhanced security by restricting unauthorized users from sending messages. 2. Improved communication experience with consistent message styles for group announcements.

Potential Commercial Applications

A potential commercial application could be integrating this technology into enterprise communication platforms to maintain message integrity and security within group chats.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of access control mechanisms in messaging applications to restrict certain users from sending messages to specific groups.

Unanswered Questions

How does the method handle messages sent by unauthorized users?

The method does not specify how unauthorized messages are handled within the group chat system.

What types of identity information are used to determine user authorization?

The abstract does not detail the specific types of identity information used in the authorization process.


Original Abstract Submitted

In a group chat-based instant messaging method, a message is received from a first messaging application of a first user in a first messaging group. The first messaging application is associated with a first messaging service. When the message is to be announced to all group members of the first messaging group, whether the first user is authorized to send the message is determined based on identity information of the first user. Based on the first user being authorized, protocol conversion on the message is performed based on a second messaging protocol of a second messaging service to output the message in a first preset announcement style for messages announced to all group members. The converted message is transmitted, via a second messaging server, to a second messaging application corresponding to one of the plurality of group members in the first messaging group.
