Abstract: A method comprising: receiving a plurality of duplicates of a serial bit stream, wherein said serial bit stream comprises a sequence of data packets; continuously dividing each of said duplicates of said serial bit stream based on sequential time windows; with respect to each of said time windows, aligning said data packets associated with each of said duplicates of said serial bit stream, received within said time window, based, at least in part, on data packet similarity; and recreating in real time said serial bit stream by selecting at least one of said aligned data packets as representing a next data packet in said sequence of data packets.
