Abstract: A method and system are described for managing data quality. An example method may include obtaining a first data stream interval including a first group of data items and a first aggregated data quality value associated with a quality of obtaining the first group, each data item including data attribute values, each data quality item including data quality attribute values associated with one of the data items. The first aggregated data quality value, a first indicator associating the first aggregated data quality value with the first group, and the first group may be selected. The first group and the first indicator may be stored in a user table of a database. A data quality table associated with the user table may be determined based on an entry in a system table. The first aggregated data quality value and the first indicator may be stored in the data quality table.

Abstract: A remote device having the ability to transmit data across a plurality of wireless channels selects the transmission channel for transmitting the data message. The remote device prioritizes the data message based on an examination of the data message relative to predetermined priority settings. Based on this prioritization and in relation to a transmission prediction term, the remote device assigns the data message to a message queue associated with the selected transmission channel. When the remote device enters the transmission range of the selected channel, the data message may thereupon be wirelessly transmitted.

Abstract: Prioritized transmission of data from a mobile device, where the mobile device includes the ability to transmit data using more than one transmission medium, includes generating data packets from sensor data. The data packet is then assigned a priority level based on the sensor data and various factors relating to the transmission mediums. The priority level may be assigned based on the transmission availability, bandwidth and cost of using the medium. The data packets, based on the assigned priority level, are then stored in a corresponding priority buffer associated with a transmission device using one of the transmission mediums. When available, the transmission device may then readily transmit the data packet from the priority buffer. Therefore, the data is transferred in a prioritized order based, in part, on the transmission medium and factors relating to the medium, as well as the sensor data being transmitted.

Abstract: A predictive fault determining system includes a non-stationary operating device and a stationary fault determining device that communicates with the operating device using wireless transmissions. The non-stationary operating device includes sensors determining status data of the operating device and a processing device to combine the status data, generating a status signal and wirelessly transmitting the status signal to the fault determining device. Using a wireless receiver, the fault determining device extracts the status data and calculates condition data for the operating device including condition levels, indicating a likelihood of at least one operational failure. Wirelessly, a condition data signal having the condition levels therein is transmitted to the non-stationary operating device, such that the resident processing device may determine if a warning notification should be generated based on selecting a condition level for various elements by comparing the status data to the condition data.
