  • SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION BASED ON DETERMINED CLOCK INFORMATION
    Publication number: 20240129287
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for transmitting messages between multiple devices of a communications network, or multiple nodes of a multiprocessor system, for example. The messages can include instructions related to transactions such as reading and/or writing values to a database, and a clock value and/or clock rate of one or more of the devices can be used to confirm the parties to the transaction before completing or authorizing the transaction and modifying the related database.
