A system and computer-implemented method for storing data and for calculating data characteristics. A concentric ring buffer has a succession of representative ring buffers, each divided into segments and reflecting an increasingly long unit of a base (e.g., a time, count, or geo base) and with a decreasing level of precision. The concentric ring buffer has a fixed total memory size based on the number of ring buffers and segments. Each segment of each ring buffer is populated in a first-in-first-out manner with a value calculated for the data characteristic for a particular length of base unit and with a particular precision. When a ring buffer is full and another value is calculated, the oldest value is transferred to a next ring buffer or deleted if there is none. Further, values can be collected from multiple concentric ring buffers and consolidated in a single concentric ring buffer.

System and computer-implemented method for improving data storage and analysis

An approach is provided for generating a searchable index including an associated object graph. Data objects of a database are converted into corresponding rows in a set of searchable columns. An object graph corresponding to each row of the searchable columns are determined. An index including the set of searchable columns and the corresponding object graphs are generated.

Method and apparatus for index generation and use

A computer readable medium can be a metadata-based description of the configuration of an RFID reader. An RFID edge server can interact with the metadata-based description to configure the RFID reader.
