Abstract
A method is provided to enhance efficiency of sensor event data transmission over network. Specifically, a method is described to buffer a set of sensor data, to group one or more of the set of sensor data having a same type for batch processing. The batch processing includes compressing and securing operations on the grouped sensor data and restoring the original message sequence of the grouped sensor data.
Claims18
A method comprising:
- identifying a batch of messages, each message of the batch of messages exhibiting a message pattern, the messages including sensor event data;
- associating batch metadata with the batch of messages, the batch metadata describing how the batch of messages is formatted;
- applying a security operation to the batch of messages to create a set of secured messages;
- updating the batch metadata with security operation information;
- and
- associating the updated batch metadata with the set of secured messages.
A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having a set of instructions stored therein which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to associate metadata with a set of secured messages by:
- identifying a batch of messages, each message of the batch of messages exhibiting a message pattern, the messages including sensor event data;
- associating batch metadata with the batch of messages, the batch metadata describing how the batch of messages is formatted;
- applying a security operation to the batch of messages to create a set of secured messages;
- updating the batch metadata with security operation information;
- and
- associating the updated batch metadata with the set of secured messages.
A computer system comprising:
- a processor set;
- and
- a computer readable storage medium;
- wherein:
- the processor set is structured, located, connected, and/or programmed to run program instructions stored on the computer readable storage medium;
- and
- the program instructions which, when executed by the processor set, cause the processor set to associate metadata with a set of secured messages by:
- identifying a batch of messages, each message of the batch of messages exhibiting a message pattern, the messages including sensor event data;
- associating batch metadata with the batch of messages, the batch metadata describing how the batch of messages is formatted;
- applying a security operation to the batch of messages to create a set of secured messages;
- updating the batch metadata with security operation information;
- and
- associating the updated batch metadata with the set of secured messages.
