A method is described for performing, by a processor, one or more queries on one or more sensors, for one or more data collected by the one or more sensors, at predetermined instants of time by a downhole modem operably coupled to the one or more sensors, prior to receiving a request for transmission of the data from a surface modem. The method also includes receiving, by the processor, one or more data from one or more sensors in response to the one or more queries, and storing, by the processor, the one or more data in a buffer coupled to the downhole modem.
