Application: Data conversion apparatus, system, and method (Patent ID: US20240202128A1)
The patent filed by Hitachi Ltd. describes a data conversion apparatus that efficiently converts data acquired by an edge device attached to a monitoring target. The system includes a storage unit storing monitoring target management information and data conversion rule information, defining conversion rules for different controller types. A calculation unit with a cache memory loads the conversion rule information, identifies the monitoring target and controller type, retrieves the corresponding conversion rule, and converts the data accordingly. The method allows for rapid and flexible data conversion based on predefined rules.
The data conversion apparatus further specifies that the conversion rules can involve converting keys or values of the data into human-understandable phrases or sentences. Additionally, the system allows for the creation of data conversion rules by combining individually creatable policy modules. The patent also covers a data conversion system involving an edge device transmitting data and controller type information to the data conversion apparatus for efficient conversion. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to data conversion, enabling quick and accurate processing of data acquired from monitoring targets through edge devices.
