Abstract: An article of manufacture, a machine, process for using the articles and machines, processes for making the articles and machines, and products produced by the process of making, along with necessary intermediates, directed to assessing the energy consumption of networks, typically computer networks, and/or applications of assessments made thereby. Industrial applicability is representatively directed to energy consumption/conservation and efficiency, such as in networks, along with control and implementation therefrom, as well as in networking, control systems communications and related systems, receiver systems, and components used in assessing and carrying out the same.

Abstract: A machine and a method of making and of using the machine. Illustratively, the machine includes, in a digital network, a node intermediate a miner client and a mining pool, the node representing the miner client to the pool, the node representing the mining pool to the miner client, the node implementing logic that: receives packet communications of a mining protocol from the miner client; interprets the packet communications to produce interpreted packet communications; routes new packet communications to the mining pool based on the interpreted packet communications; receives other packet communications of the mining protocol from the mining pool; interprets the other communications to produce other interpreted packet communications; and routes other new packet communications to the miner client based on the other interpreted packet communications.
