Abstract
An example operation includes one or more of determining a portion of memory in a transport to store data, establishing a timeframe when the data may be accessed based on a type of the data, and clearing the data from the portion of memory after the timeframe. The type of the data may be related to one or more of the transport and an occupant of the transport. A length of the timeframe is inversely proportional to a criticality of the type of the data.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- determining a time frame during which data stored in a memory of a transport can be accessed;
- identifying a first event, ending the time frame at an interrupt time before an expiration time of the time frame in response to a first transport event;
- calculating a remaining portion of the time frame by subtracting the interrupt time from the expiration time;
- and
- applying the remaining portion to a second transport event.
A system, comprising:
- a processor that executes instructions stored in a memory to configure the processor to:
- determining a time frame during which data stored in the memory of a transport can be accessed;
- in response to a first event being identified, end the time frame at an interrupt time before an expiration time of the time frame;
- calculate a remaining portion of the time frame by subtracting the interrupt time from the expiration time;
- and
- apply the remaining portion to a second transport event.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
- determining a time frame during which data stored in the memory of a transport can be accessed;
- in response to identifying a first event, ending the time frame at an interrupt time before an expiration time of the time frame in response to a first transport event;
- calculating a remaining portion of the time frame by subtracting the interrupt time from the expiration time;
- and
- applying the remaining portion to a second transport event.
