SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA REDUCTION BY DATA SEQUENCE ALIGNMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17726284 Titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA REDUCTION BY DATA SEQUENCE ALIGNMENT'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods and systems for managing data collection in a distributed environment. The system includes a data aggregator and a data collector. The data collector uses a consensus sequence, which is a pattern of frequently occurring data, to generate smaller data transmissions. Instead of transmitting full data sets, the data collector replaces segments of data with pointer pairs, which indicate a portion of the consensus sequence that matches the data segment. The data collector then transmits these pointer pairs, along with any additional data segments, to the data aggregator. The data aggregator can reconstruct the data from multiple data collectors using the reduced-size data and the consensus sequence.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and systems for managing data collection throughout a distributed environment are disclosed. To manage data collection, a system may include a data aggregator and a data collector. The data collector may utilize a consensus sequence to generate reduced-size data transmissions. The consensus sequence may be made up of patterns of data that occur frequently in data collected by the data collector. Therefore, data collected by the data collector may be condensed by replacing segments of the data with pointer pairs, pointer pairs being indicators of a portion of the consensus sequence that matches a segments of data. The data collector may transmit these pointer pairs, along with any additional segments of data, to the data aggregator instead of transmitting full data sets. The data aggregator may reconstruct data from the data collectors using the reduced-size data and the consensus sequence.
