RE-ORDERING FILES BY KEYWORD FOR MIGRATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17533491 titled 'RE-ORDERING FILES BY KEYWORD FOR MIGRATION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a computer implemented method for migrating files from primary storage to secondary storage based on the number of keywords in each file. The method involves identifying the target files, extracting text data and keywords from them, determining the number of keyword appearances in each file, and assigning an order of migration based on the decreasing number of keywords. The files are then migrated to the secondary storage according to the assigned order.
- The method identifies target files for migration from primary to secondary storage.
- It extracts text data and keywords from the target files.
- It determines the number of keyword appearances in each file.
- It assigns an order of migration based on the decreasing number of keywords.
- The files are migrated to the secondary storage according to the assigned order.
- The method may also write the files with the greatest number of keywords closest to the default position of the tape reader.
Potential Applications
- Data storage and management systems
- File migration and archiving systems
Problems Solved
- Efficient migration of files from primary to secondary storage
- Prioritizing files based on their content and relevance
Benefits
- Optimal organization and storage of files based on keyword relevance
- Improved retrieval and access to files based on their importance
Original Abstract Submitted
A computer implemented method includes identifying a set of target files to be migrated from a primary storage to a secondary storage, extracting text data from the set of target files, identifying a set of keywords corresponding to the extracted text data from the set of target files, determining a number of keyword appearances in each file of the set of target files, assigning an order of migration corresponding to the set of target files such that the target files are written to the secondary storage in order of decreasing number of keywords, and migrating the files to the secondary storage according to the assigned order of migration. The method may additionally include writing the files with the greatest number of keywords closest to the default position of the tape reader. A computer program product and computer system corresponding to the method are also disclosed herein.
