20100070543 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING TRUE COMPUTER FILE TYPE IDENTITY - A system and method for providing a cost-effective, metadata independent mechanism for the determination of file types. When a user makes a request to store data, the storage device communicates with a storage management software function. The storage management software invokes a file determination system in order to determine the true file type of the file. The file determination system inspects the file header or raw data information and utilizes a structure or an algorithm that specifies, for various file types, the necessary data and patterns required in the file to be of this type, and determines the true file type. Thus storage management software can compare the true file type of a file being inspected to rules established by an administrator and subsequently inform the storage device to either accept or not accept the users request to store data. | 03-18-2010 |

20150120789 | METHOD, APPARATUS, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR FILE MANAGEMENT - Methods, apparatus, and electronic devices for file management are provided. On a touch screen, whether a duration time of a first pre-set operation to a target file is greater than a first pre-set threshold value can be detected. When the duration time of the first pre-set operation to the target file is detected greater than the first pre-set threshold value, the target file, and other files related to the target file and on an interface of the target file can be determined as files to be managed. According to a second pre-set operation to the files to be managed, a corresponding management to the files to be managed can be performed. | 04-30-2015 |
20150293986 | DATA DISTRIBUTION METHODS AND SYSTEMS - Methods and related systems for secured and distributed data storage and communication are disclosed. For each byte of a given data set or file, data is split at the bit level and reassembled into a given number of meaningless data sets or files. One or more parity files are also generated to ensure availability and integrity of the data at all times. Each file is sent to a different and typically geographically distinct data storage location. When the information is required, the reverse process takes place. The only place where the information is reconstructed and accessible is at the point where it is required (the authorised users' computing devices or the organisation's network reassembly point). The source information is never stored or accessible in any single storage location, making it highly secured. The process can be embodied into a system through various forms, including software, firmware, hardware or combination thereof. | 10-15-2015 |

20160041977 | STORING METHOD FOR EDITED IMAGE FILE - A storing method temporarily records every editing actions when a 3D-model of an original image file is edited. When the 3D-model is edited completely and an edition-completed model is obtained, a project file is created to store an absolute address of the original image file located in a hard-drive, and to store the temporary recorded editing actions to as a log file of the project file. When the project file is opened later, it opens the 3D-model of the original image file in according to the stored absolute address, and then the opened 3D-model is edited automatically in according to the stored editing actions. Therefore, the edition-completed model can be obtained directly whenever the project file is opened. Also, a user can recover the edition-completed model back to a status before executing any one of the edition actions in according to the log file. | 02-11-2016 |
20160062697 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FILE MANAGEMENT BY MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICES - Systems and methods for file management by mobile computing devices. An example method, performed by a computer system, may comprise: storing, by a computer system, a first file having a first size, in a memory; storing, in the memory, a second file derived from the first file, the second file having the second size, the second size being less than the first size; determining that the memory is not sufficient to perform a memory write operation; selecting a third file having a fourth file associated with it, the fourth file derived from the third file; and removing the third file from the memory. | 03-03-2016 |
20160078048 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ORGANIZING FILES BASED ON A UNIQUE IDENTIFICATION CODE - A system for determining a time that a file was created and associating an ID with the file based on the file creation time is disclosed. The system adjusts the creation time by a time zone offset. In the case of image files, the file creation time may be based on information associated with the image: (1) by the camera that took the picture (exchangeable image file data); (2) when the photo was last modified in memory (file modification time data); (3) based on the raw date and time the photo file was created (file date-time data); and (4) when the photo was imported onto a client device. The system may rename the file with this adjusted creation time to create a standardized name. As a result, the standardized name provides a filename nomenclature that is based on the actual or estimated time of when the file was created. | 03-17-2016 |
