  • Patent number: 9742618
    Abstract: There is provided a system and method for resilient routing based on a multi-channel model for emergency management. The system includes a packet delivery anomaly detector for determining an existence of an anomaly in a mandated routing infrastructure for a packet that renders the packet incapable of reaching a destination node designated for the packet through the mandated routing infrastructure. The system further includes a dynamic alternate route identifier for dynamically identifying alternate routes for the packet responsive to a determination of the existence of the anomaly. The alternate routes are outside the mandated routing infrastructure, are provided using one or more mobile devices external to and not part of the mandated routing infrastructure, and are dynamically identified responsive to at least geographic location information. The system also includes a wireless transmitter for wirelessly routing the packet using at least one of the alternate routes.

  • Publication number: 20140214583
    Abstract: A data distribution system, method and a computer program product therefor. Computers share resources with organizations in multiple locations. At least one selling agent supports organizations in each location. The selling agent placing offers to sell selected organizational data in an auction marketplace. At least one buying agent supports organizations in said each location. The buying agent selectively places bids responsive to offers to sell data and. A data discovery service provisioned on the computer(s) identifies potential buyers of organizational data and notifies respective buying agents of data available from other organizations.
