Abstract: A technology is provided for providing quantified reliance data for at least one of an electronic computing device node and a connection in network, the technology comprising instrumenting at least one of the device and the connection to generate at least two datasets comprising at least one of a device feature vector and a connection feature vector, each feature vector being encoded in a form suitable for transmission over a connection in the network; performing computational inferencing over the at least two datasets to generate quantified reliance data comprising at least one of a trust indicator, a diagnostic indicator and a performance indicator associated with at least one of the device and the connection; and supplying the quantified reliance data in a form usable for selecting an action to be performed, the action being at least one of performed by and performed to at least one of the at least one electronic computing device node and the at least one connection.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for encoding a set of sensor content symbols at least in part via applying a processing window of an adjustable size.
