  • Patent number: 11770328
    Abstract: A method for monitoring data integrity on a network includes reading error data from an interface associated with a particular link of the network in response to error data being present in a message received on the particular link. The method also includes creating a report message including the error data and transmitting the report message to a network monitoring algorithm operable on a processor circuit. The network monitoring algorithm is configured to determine a data integrity of the particular link based on the error data.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220179720
    Abstract: A method for synchronizing messages between processors is provided. The method comprising receiving, by a first external device, inbound messages for applications running redundantly in high integrity mode on two or more multi-core processors. The inbound messages are synchronously copied to the multi-core processors. The multi-core processors send outbound messages to respective alignment queues in the first external device or a second external device, wherein the outbound messages contain calculation results from the inbound messages. The first or second external device compares the alignment queues. Matched outbound messages in the alignment queues are sent to a network or data bus. Any unmatched outbound messages in the alignment queues are discarded.
