Serialized Object Stream Data Locality Extraction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current systems lack an efficient mechanism to extract specific data types from objects, especially custom objects, without requiring custom object enablers, leading to incomplete data extraction when these enablers are absent.
Innovation Solution
A computer-implemented method that extracts data from objects in a serialized object stream, relocates specified data types to a contiguous section, creating an enhanced data stream while maintaining backward compatibility with the original simple data stream, allowing for efficient data extraction and round-trip processing of custom objects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If custom object enablers are used to extract data from custom objects, then data extraction completeness is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts data of specified types from the serialized object stream and relocates it to a contiguous section, separating the extraction logic from custom object enablers. This allows data extraction without requiring custom enablers for each object type, reducing device complexity while maintaining extraction completeness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a universal data extraction mechanism that works with any object type in the serialized stream without requiring type-specific enablers. The system can extract data of specified types from any object using a single unified approach, eliminating the need for multiple custom enablers.
2Measurement precision
If data is extracted from each object individually, then data extraction accuracy is improved, but productivity decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the extraction of data of specified types from multiple objects into a single contiguous section of the serialized stream. Instead of extracting and processing data from each object separately, the system combines all relevant data into one location, improving productivity while maintaining extraction accuracy through the unified approach.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the serialized object stream by creating a distinct contiguous section for data of specified types, separating it from other data. This segmentation allows efficient access to specific data types without processing the entire stream object-by-object, thereby improving extraction efficiency.
3Productivity
If data of specified types is relocated to a contiguous section, then data access efficiency is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary action by relocating data of specified types to a contiguous section during the serialization process. This pre-organization of data allows for efficient access without requiring complex processing at query time, as the data is already positioned optimally for retrieval.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by creating a specific contiguous section within the serialized stream that is optimized for storing and accessing data of specified types. This localized optimization improves data access efficiency for specific data types without complicating the overall stream structure, as only a portion of the stream requires the enhanced organization.
4Productivity
If an enhanced data stream format is created, then data locality is improved, but adaptability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements backward compatibility by nesting the enhanced data stream format within the existing simple data stream structure. The relocated contiguous section is integrated into the original stream format, allowing systems that only support the simple format to still process the enhanced stream without modification, thus maintaining adaptability while improving data locality.
Data Source
AI summary
A computer-implemented method and apparatus for providing data locality in a serialized object stream. Data is extracted from an object into the serialized object stream, thereby creating a simple data stream. Data of a specified type is then relocated from the extracted data to a contiguous section within the serialized object stream, thereby creating an enhanced data stream. The enhanced data stream is formatted in such a manner as to provide backward compatibility with the simple data stream.
