Abstract

Methods of converting data are provided. In one embodiment, a data conversion method is provided that includes partitioning the data file into a plurality of file segments. The method also includes assigning a plurality of key values for each of the plurality of file segments. Also, the method includes forming a key value file from the plurality of key values.

Claims (28)

1. A method of converting a data file, comprising:

converting the data file into a raw file, the raw file composed of raw data that is a lower level of data than data stored in the data file;

partitioning the raw file into a plurality of raw file segments;

for each of the plurality of raw file segments, comparing the raw file segment to one or more existing raw file segments stored in an existing raw file segment library;

when the raw file segment does not match any of the one or more existing raw file segments:

storing the raw file segment into the existing raw file segment library, and

creating and storing a key value associated with the raw file segment into the existing raw file segment library;

assigning a plurality of key values for the plurality of raw file segments, wherein each of the plurality of key values corresponds to a particular raw file segment of the plurality of raw file segments; and

forming a key value file from the plurality of key values assigned for the plurality of raw file segments,

wherein a size of each of the plurality of key values is less than or equal to a size of the raw file segment associated with the particular key value.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising encrypting the key value file.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising compressing the key value file.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising changing a key value associated with an existing raw file segment based on a frequency of the existing raw file segment matching one of the plurality of raw file segments.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein a changed key value changed based on the frequency of the existing raw file segment matching one of the plurality of raw file segments has a smaller size than a previous key value associated with the existing raw file segment.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the raw file composed of the raw data is in a cross global format.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the cross global format is a binary code format.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the raw file composed of the raw data is in an American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) data format.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the raw file is a binary code file and the raw data is binary code data.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein partitioning the raw file into a plurality of raw file segments includes partitioning the binary code file into a plurality of binary strings.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the raw file is partitioned into the plurality of raw file segments based on a variable size delimiter in which one or more of the plurality of raw file segments is segmented at a gap or space in the raw file.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the raw file is partitioned into the plurality of raw file segments based on a fixed size delimiter in which one or more of the plurality of raw file segments is segmented to have a fixed memory size.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the raw file is partitioned into the plurality of raw file segments based on a variable size delimiter in which one or more of the plurality of raw file segments is segmented at a gap or space in the raw file and on a fixed size delimiter in which the one or more of the plurality of raw file segments is segmented to have a fixed memory size when a gap or space is not present within a portion of the raw file extending along the fixed memory size.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the existing raw file segment library includes a plurality of reference libraries, wherein each of the reference libraries is provided to store one or more of the existing raw file segments of a particular file type.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the existing raw file segment library includes at least one of a text file reference library, a video file reference library, and an application file reference library.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the key value is a hexadecimal value.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the key value is an ASCII value.

18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the key value file is created after assigning a particular key value of the plurality of key values to each of the plurality of raw file segments.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the key value file is created and updated while assigning a particular key value of the plurality of key values to each of the plurality of raw file segments.
