SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ATOMIZING AND INDIVIDUATING DATA AS DATA QUANTA
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- providing a value file containing a value entry associated with a recording event, the value entry comprising value entry bytes;
providing a recording record file containing a recording record entry associated with the value entry, the recording record entry also associated with the recording event, the recording record entry comprising recording record entry bytes;
associating, at a computing device, in a data quantum file the value entry with the corresponding recording record entry, the data quantum file containing a data quantum comprising both the value entry bytes and the recording record entry bytes;
generating, at the computing device, a data quantum unique identifier by applying an algorithm to the data quantum file such that any change to the value entry or the recording record entry produces a corresponding change to the data quantum unique identifier according to the algorithm; and
associating, at the computing device, in a registration file the data quantum unique identifier and a data quantum file locator;
whereby the recording record provides information regarding the value entry in the context of the recording event, and the data quantum unique identifier allows for detecting alterations of any one of the value entry and the recording record entry.

Abstract
The present specification provides a method comprising: providing a value file containing a value entry associated with a recording event and a recording record file containing a recording record entry associated with the value entry and also with the recording event. The method also comprises, at a computing device, associating in a data quantum file the value entry with the corresponding recording record entry; generating a data quantum unique identifier by applying an algorithm to the data quantum file such that any change to the value entry or the recording record entry produces a corresponding change to the data quantum unique identifier according to the algorithm; and associating in a registration file the data quantum unique identifier and a data quantum file locator. The data quantum unique identifier allows for detecting alterations of any one of the value entry and the recording record entry.

12. A method comprising:
-
populating a map data structure comprising keys and key entries with one or more value files each containing a corresponding value entry and one or more recording record files each containing a corresponding recording record entry associated with a corresponding value entry. The value entries and the recording record entries comprising value entry bytes and recording record entry bytes respectively, the one or more value files each stored as one of the keys and the one or more recording record files corresponding to each value file stored as a corresponding key entry, the map data structure located on a computer-readable memory in communication with a computing device; retrieving, at the computing device, a given key from the map data structure, the given key corresponding to a given value file; creating, at the computing device, a data quantum file name corresponding to a data quantum file; opening, at the computing device, the data quantum file; storing the given value file in the data quantum file located on the computer-readable memory; retrieving, at the computing device, a given key entry corresponding to the given key, the given key entry comprising a given recording record file corresponding to the given value file; storing the given recording record file in the data quantum file; generating, at the computing device, a data quantum unique identifier by applying an algorithm to the data quantum file such that any change to the given value entry or the given recording record entry produces a corresponding change to the data quantum unique identifier according to the algorithm; and storing, in a registration file located on the computer-readable memory, the data quantum unique identifier and a data quantum file locator associated with the data quantum file. - View Dependent Claims (13)
