Abstract
Disclosed is a method and system for archiving data. A server computer (or any computing device) receives data transmitted over a network from a client computer, wherein at least some of the data was previously collected by a scientific instrument during an experiment. After receiving the data, the server computer updates (e.g., creates) an index for the received data, archives the received data, and automatically transmits a notification to the client computer that the received data has been archived.
Claims23
A data archiving method comprising:
- receiving, by a server computer, data transmitted over a network from a client computer, the data comprising experiment data previously collected by a scientific instrument during an experiment;
- updating, by the server computer, an index with information about the received data;
- archiving the received data;
- and
- automatically transmitting a notification to the client computer that the received data has been archived.
A computer readable medium storing computer program instructions capable of being executed by a computer processor on a computing device, the computer program instructions defining the steps of:
- receiving data transmitted over a network from a client computer, the data comprising experiment data previously collected by a scientific instrument during an experiment;
- updating an index with information about the received data;
- archiving the received data;
- and
- automatically transmitting a notification to the client computer that the received data has been archived.
A server computer comprising:
- an interface configured to receive data transmitted over a network from a client computer;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- update an index with information about the received data,
- archive the received data, and
- automatically transmit a notification to the client computer that the received data has been archived.
A data archiving method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device from a scientific instrument, experiment data previously collected by the scientific instrument during an experiment;
- formatting the experiment data into formatted data;
- transmitting, by the computing device, the formatted data to a server computer for archiving;
- and
- receiving, by the computing device from the server computer, a notification that the formatted data has been archived.
