Patent number: 11018959Abstract: A configurable data collection, processing and delivery system implements a unified data-flow execution pipeline in collection, processing and delivery of data to a target within or external to a computing device. Multiple data collection sets are defined from data available to the system and organized into at least one tensor based telemetry data stream associated with a service flow. At least one dynamically modifiable execution unit is provided to process the telemetry stream and the service flow. The telemetry stream is also processed into one or more target destination delivery streams that adheres to protocol, network characteristics, and transmission process required by the set of targets.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2017Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: RN TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventor: Richard W.

Patent number: 9727389Abstract: Systems and methods are used to provide distributed processing on a service provider network that includes a plurality of remotely located consumer devices. Each of the remotely located consumer devices includes a processing device. A service is provided from the service provider network to the remotely located consumer devices. Distributed processing of a task on the processing devices of the remotely located consumer devices occurs, the distributed processing being unrelated to the service provided to the consumers. The distributed processing occurs even when the processing devices are in use by corresponding remotely located consumer devices.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2015Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: CSC Holdings, LLCInventors: Richard W.
