Abstract
Aspects relate to a computer-implemented method, a computer program and a system for storing a heterogeneous sequence of discrete-time data determined from a process to produce a chemical, pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and/or biological product. The method comprises receiving the discrete-time data, the discrete-time data comprising data from one or more first scientific instruments and including data comprising one or more timestamps corresponding to one or more digital signals.

A computer-implemented method for storing a heterogeneous sequence of discrete-time data determined from a process to produce a chemical, pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and/or biological product, the method comprising:
- receiving the discrete-time data, the discrete-time data comprising:
- first data from a first scientific instrument, the first data including a first timestamp corresponding to a first digital signal;
- and
- second data from a second scientific instrument, the second data including a second timestamp corresponding to a second digital signal;
- wherein the first scientific instrument differs from the second scientific instrument;
- wherein the first scientific instrument and the second scientific instrument each have a different corresponding observation type, wherein the first data has a first observation type and the second data has a second observation type, wherein each of the observation type is associated with functionality for extracting, parsing, and interpreting data of that observation type;
- storing the first data and first metadata in a first record of a database, wherein the first data is stored according to functionality mapped to by the first observation type, the first record comprising:
- a first intensities field having a first data type;
- and
- a first descriptors field having a second data type;
- storing the second data and second metadata in a second record of the database, wherein the second data is stored according to functionality mapped to by the second observation type, the second record comprising:
- a second intensities field having the first data type;
- and
- a second descriptors field having the second data type;
- wherein the first metadata includes a first identifier and the second metadata includes a second identifier,
- when the first data includes first intensities and first descriptors of the first digital signal, storing the first data further comprises:
- storing the first intensities in the first intensities field, and storing the first descriptors in the first descriptors field;
- when the second data includes second intensities and second descriptors of the second digital signal, storing the second data further comprises:
- storing the second intensities in the second intensities field, and
- storing the second descriptors in the second descriptors field.
A system for storing a heterogeneous sequence of discrete-time datadetermined from a process to produce a chemical, pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and/or biological product, the system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- at least one memory operably coupled to the at least on processor;
- a first interface to a first scientific instrument;
- a second interface to a second scientific instrument;
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a database configured to:
- receive the discrete-time data via the first interface and the second interface, the discrete-time data comprising:
- first data from the first scientific instrument, the first data including a first timestamp corresponding to a first digital signal;
- and
- second data from the second scientific instrument, the second data including a second timestamp corresponding to a second digital signal;
- wherein the first scientific instrument and the second scientific instrument each have a different corresponding observation type, wherein the first data has a first observation type and the second data has a second observation type, wherein each of the observation type is associated with functionality for extracting, parsing, and interpreting data of that observation type;
- store the first data and first metadata in a first record, wherein the first data is stored according to functionality mapped to by the first observation type, the first record comprising:
- a first intensities field having a first data type, and a first descriptors field having a second data type;
- store the second data and second metadata in a second record, wherein the second data is stored according to functionality mapped to by the second observation type, the second record comprising:
- a second intensities field having the first data type, and
- a second descriptors field having the second data type;
- wherein the first metadata includes a first identifier and the second metadata includes a second identifier,
- when the first data includes first intensities and first descriptors of the first digital signal, the database is configured to store the first data by:
- storing the first intensities in the first intensities field, and
- storing the first descriptors in the first descriptors field;
- when the second data includes second intensities and second descriptors of the second digital signal, the database is configured to store the second data by:
- storing the second intensities in the second intensities field, and
- storing the second descriptors in the second descriptors field.
