Patent number: 11604804Abstract: A data replication system is disclosed comprising a change event detection module configured to run at a first data repository and a change event implementation module configured to run at a second data repository. A messaging service configured to transmit received messages in accordance with message subscriptions is also provided. The event detection module is configured to detect changes made to the first data repository and transmit change event messages to the messaging service. The event implementation module is configured to subscribe to change event messages at the messaging service and, in response to receipt of a change event message, to implement the change event at the second data repository.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2018Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: GB GAS HOLDINGS LIMITEDInventors: Prasanna Bapat, Swapnil Shah

Patent number: 11378415Abstract: A method of detecting conditions indicative of energy meter tampering, meter faults or energy loss (e.g. due to energy theft) is disclosed. The method includes receiving energy consumption data from an energy meter indicating consumption of energy at a location served by the energy meter. Event data is also received from the meter comprising one or more events generated by the energy meter. The consumption data is analysed to detect a predetermined consumption condition. The event data is analysed to detect a predetermined event or event pattern in the event data. An alert condition is generated in response to detecting both the consumption condition and the event or event pattern.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2018Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: GB GAS HOLDINGS LIMITEDInventors: Jane Chang, Laura Shemilt, Timothy Wong, Andrew Woods

Publication number: 20210011891Abstract: A computer-implemented method of importing data from a data source to a target storage system is disclosed. The method involves executing an automated data import process to retrieve data from the data source and update the target storage system based on the retrieved data. The automated data import process operates in dependence on a source data schema of the data source. The method involves detecting a change in the source data schema, and, in response to detecting the change in the source data schema, modifying the automated data import process. The modified automated data import process can subsequently be used to retrieve further data from the data source and update the target storage system based on the further retrieved data.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2020Publication date: January 14, 2021Applicant: GB Gas Holdings LimitedInventor: Christopher Soza

Publication number: 20200293559Abstract: A method of identifying relationships between data collections is disclosed. Each data collection comprises a plurality of data records made up of data fields. The method comprises performing a relationship search process based on a first seed value and a second seed value. A first set of records from the data collections is identified based on the first seed value. A second set of records from the data collections is identified based on the second seed value. The process then searches for a common value across the first and second record sets, wherein the common value is a value which appears in a first field in a first record of the first record set and in a second field in a second record of the second record set, wherein the first record is from a first data collection and the second record is from a second data collection.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2018Publication date: September 17, 2020Applicant: GB Gas Holdings LimitedInventors: Daljit REHAL, Terry PHIPPS, Emmanuel OLAJIDE, Graham ROSS

Patent number: 10691651Abstract: A method and software tool for identifying relationships between columns of one or more data tables are disclosed. In the disclosed method, a relationship indicator is computed for each of a plurality of column pairs, each column pair comprising respective first and second columns selected from the one or more data tables. The relationship indicator comprises a measure of a relationship (e.g. indicating a strength or likelihood of a relationship) between data of the first column and data of the second column. Relationships between columns of the data tables are then identified in dependence on the computed relationship indicators. The identified relationships may be used to create and execute data queries.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: GB GAS HOLDINGS LIMITEDInventors: Stephen Harrison, Daljit Rehal

Patent number: 10678810Abstract: A computer-implemented method of managing data in a data repository is disclosed. The method comprises maintaining a data repository, the data repository storing data imported from one or more data sources. A database entity added to the data repository is identified and a metadata object for storing metadata relating to the database entity is created and stored in a metadata repository. The metadata object is also added to a documentation queue. Metadata for the metadata object is received from user via a metadata management user interface and the received metadata is stored in the metadata repository and associated with the metadata object.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2017Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: GB GAS HOLDINGS LIMITEDInventor: Daljit Rehal
