Patent number: 10706010Abstract: Systems and methods for managing data, such as metadata or index databases. In one exemplary method, a notification that an existing file has been modified or that a new file has been created is received by an indexing software component, which then, in response to the notification performs an indexing operation, where the notification is either not based solely on time or user input or the notification includes an identifier that identifies the file. Other methods in data processing systems and machine readable media are also described.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2016Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yan Arrouye, Dominic Giampaolo, Andrew Carol, Steve Zellers

Patent number: 9626370Abstract: Systems and methods for managing data, such as metadata or indexes for index databases. In one exemplary method, different processing priorities are assigned to different indexing tasks based upon the origin of the task. In another exemplary method, indexing tasks are processed in a first mode when a data processing system is in a first power state and indexing tasks are processed in a second mode when the data processing system is in a second power state.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2015Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yan Arrouye, Dominic Giampaolo, Andrew Carol

Patent number: 8983929Abstract: Methods and systems for managing an index database. In one exemplary method, an index database is stored on a machine readable volume with an operating system and the files which have been indexed, and then the volume is, after the storing, made available for distribution to licensees or customers. In this manner, the volume will include a previously created index database, allowing a user to begin use of the index database without having to perform an indexing operation.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2012Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Andrew Carol, Yan Arrouye, Dominic Giampaolo

Patent number: 8914322Abstract: Systems and methods for managing data, such as metadata or non-metadata such as content. In one exemplary method, a composite document is received and it is determined whether the composite document contains at least one subdocument and if it does, the method captures metadata and/or content from the subdocument and stores the captured metadata and/or content for use in future searches (or an immediate search). The metadata and/or content from the composite document is typically combined together with information about the hierarchy of the subdocuments in the document. The type of information in metadata for one type of file differs from the type of information in metadata for another type of file. Other methods are described and data processing systems and machine readable media are also described.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2011Date of Patent: December 16, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yan Arrouye, Dominic Giampaolo
