System for adaptively identifying data for storage
First Claim
1. A system for adaptively identifying data to be stored in a document processing system comprising:
- an identification processor for automatically intermittently examining a plurality of file directories to identify a plurality of new stored data objects within at least one of said plurality of file directories, said identified new stored data objects being associated with a particular medical entity and having been previously absent from said at least one of said plurality of file directories;
a decision processor for identifying a particular new stored data object of said plurality of new stored data objects based on predetermined object identification criteria, said particular new stored data object containing associated data indexing information; and
a communication processor for providing communication among said identification processor, said decision processor and said document processing system for processing said identified particular new stored data object containing data indexing information with a first executable application differently from other identified new stored data objects without data indexing information using a different second executable application, by automatically deriving data index information from said particular new stored data object in response to said identification of said particular new stored data object.

Abstract
The invention is directed to a system for adaptively identifying data to be stored in a document-processing system that includes an identification processor programmed for identifying the existence of a new and previously absent stored data object in at least one of a plurality of file directories. The identified new stored data object being associated with a particular medical entity, a decision processor programmed for comparing at least a portion of a filename of an identified new stored data object with stored predetermined filename data, and identifying a new stored data object containing data indexing information in response to a filename data match. A communication processor is programmed for providing communication among the identification processor, the decision processor and the document-processing system for processing an identified new stored data object containing data indexing information differently from other identified new stored data objects.

8. A method performed by a data processor for adaptively identifying data to be stored in a document processing system comprising the steps of:
-
automatically intermittently interrogating a plurality of file directories to identify a plurality of newly stored data objects in at least one of said plurality of file directories, said plurality of newly stored data objects being associated with a particular medical entity and having individual filenames; receiving data indexing information associated with a particular one of said identified plurality of newly stored data objects identified in response to a filename data match for said particular one of said plurality of newly stored data objects; and communicating at least a portion of said received data indexing information to said document processing system for use in processing of said particular one of said identified plurality of newly stored data objects with a first executable application using said associated data indexing information, and differently from other identified newly stored data objects without data indexing information using a different second executable application, by automatically deriving data index information from said particular new stored data object in response to identification of said particular new stored data object. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
