Abstract: A method and system for adapting fault tolerant computing. The method includes the steps of measuring an environmental condition representative of an environment. An on-board processing system's sensitivity to the measured environmental condition is measured. It is determined whether to reconfigure a fault tolerance of the on-board processing system based in part on the measured environmental condition. The fault tolerance of the on-board processing system may be reconfigured based in part on the measured environmental condition.

Abstract: Message translation systems and methods are provided. In one embodiment, a method for translating messages comprises reading a first sequence of one or more message elements from a first interface, wherein the message elements are structured based on a first protocol; converging on a message mapping node based on the first sequence of one or more message elements, wherein the message mapping node is defined by a protocol metadata schema; performing one or more conversion operations on the first sequence of one or more message elements to construct a second sequence of one or more message elements, wherein the one or more conversion operations are based on the message mapping node; and writing the second sequence of one or more message elements to a second interface.

Abstract: An electronic module is provided. The module includes a first logic device having at least two processors and a first comparator and a second logic device having at least one processor and a second comparator. Each of the at least two processors are coupled to each of the first and second comparators. The first and second comparators operate as a distributed comparator system. Each comparator independently identifies faults in the processors.
