  • System and method for storage and analysis of time-based data
    Patent number: 11210315
    Abstract: A system and method includes a data sensor providing sensor data. A database is configured to store the sensor data over time in rows of a table. A processor is configured to convert the table into a temporal format and collapse the rows in a temporal table. The temporal data can be normalized, and the normalized temporal data can be natively analyzed over normalized time periods, e.g., to improve an efficiency and/or accuracy of the analysis. The systems and methods can also be used to efficiently inter-operate with non-temporal data as needed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 7, 2019
    Date of Patent: December 28, 2021
    Assignee: THE BOEING COMPANY
    Inventors: Ian A. Willson, John G. Wilson, Daniel D. Gilbertson, William D. Kelsey
