  • Patent number: 10585180
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention may include a method, computer program product and computer system for managing mobile objects. The embodiment may acquire, by a first acquiring section, measurement data obtained by a first mobile object measuring the first mobile object, using a sensor of the first mobile object. The embodiment may acquire, by a second section, data obtained by a second mobile object detecting the first mobile object in response to a request from outside, using a sensor of the second mobile object. The embodiment may verify, by a verifying section, a validity of the measurement data using the detection data.

  • Patent number: 10579453
    Abstract: A method for stream-processing data including a missing part in real time and thereafter updating the result of the stream processing. A technique for processing data is included. The technique includes receiving data; detecting a probably missing part in the received data while stream-processing the received data in real time; and comparing master data corresponding to the received data and having no missing part with the probably missing part, and if the received data has the missing part, updating the result of the stream processing using the master data.
