Apparatus and method for analyzing remote data
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method comprising:
- creating a temporary directory on a remote system having a data;
copying a control script to said temporary directory;
running said control script on the remote system;
wherein said control script copies a module from a local system to said remote system;
wherein said control script executes the module;
wherein, responsive to said control script executing the module, said module accesses and analyzes the data to generate an output;
wherein said control script sends said output to said local system;
wherein executing the module causes the module to run on the remote system and perform an operation on the data, as if the module was running on the local system, without the need for an abstract, object-oriented representation of the data that is independent of a data storage schema of the data; and
wherein the output does not involve sending software or software updates from the remote system to be installed on the local system.

Abstract
An apparatus and method for processing remotely located data is disclosed. The present invention comprises a computer software program that operates on a local machine and a remote machine. A user must first select a module to execute and specify the remote data. The local machine creates a temporary directory on the remote machine and copies a control script into the temporary directory. The control script copies the module from the local system to the remote system and executes the module. The module generates an output and transmits the output back to the local machine. The control script then deletes the module on the remote system. The control script also deletes the temporary directory and the control script on the remote system, leaving the remote data in the same condition as it was prior to analysis.

15. An apparatus comprising:
-
hardware comprising a processor and a memory; a software electronically written onto said memory; wherein said software directs said processor to perform steps comprising; creating a temporary directory on a remote system having a data; copying a control script to said temporary directory; running said control script on the remote system; wherein said control script copies a module from a local system to said remote system; wherein said control script executes the module; wherein, responsive to said control script executing the module, said module accesses and analyzes the data to generate an output; wherein said control script sends said output to said local system; wherein said module generates an output on the remote system as if the module was running on the local system without the need for an abstract, object-oriented representation of a data that is independent of a data storage schema of the data; and wherein the output does not involve sending software or software undates from the remote system to be installed on the local system. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
