Time Indexing Products
Time Indexing has a set of products available.
The foundation for all timeindexing is a base product, which is the called
Time Indexing CORE.
There are further products that utilise
the CORE, which are domain specific applications.
The Time Indexing CORE provides a
framework for building applications that use
time as the main method of selecting data.
The core product provides a consistent and coherent way of
doing precise time-based data storage, selection, and processing.
In a Time Indexing system, data is stored
and retrieved using time as a key.
All data is stored by recording
timestamps for the data, together
with the data itself. Data is retrieved
by requesting a single data item at a
particular time, or by requesting a
selection of data items in a specified
time interval.
The system can store
data of any type and of any size, and
can represent times from as small as
nanoseconds up to millenia.
Applications can choose either to
view time as a continuum, or
to view time as discrete timestamps.
Using the CORE, it is possible to build applications
in various industry sectors, these include:
- multimedia download, for music and video web sites
- manipulation and processing of audio, for call centres
- sensor data logging, for remote sensing
- time-based archiving, for backups or release control
- program testing, for keeping regression test data
