  • Patent number: 10366249
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer readable medium for management of infinite data streams. The apparatus includes a memory that stores streaming data with a data set and a processor operably connected to the memory. The processor transforms the data set to a second data set. To transform the data set, the processor determines whether a difference level exceeds a threshold, and transforms the data set by adding a noise when the difference level exceeds the threshold. When the difference level does not exceed the threshold, the processor determines whether a retroactive count is greater than a threshold, transforms the data set by adding a second noise when the retroactive count is greater than the threshold, and transforms the data set by adding a third noise when the retroactive count is not greater than the threshold. The processor transmits the second data set to a data processing system for further processing.
