  • Publication number: 20240048274
    Abstract: A method for data communication between a first node and a second node includes forming one or more redundancy messages from data messages at the first node using an error correcting code and transmitting first messages from the first node to the second node over a data path, the transmitted first messages including the data messages and the one or more redundancy messages. Second messages are received at the first node from the second node, which are indicative of: (i) a rate of arrival at the second node of the first messages, and (ii) successful and unsuccessful delivery of the first messages. A transmission rate limit and a window size are maintained according to the received second messages. Transmission of additional messages from the first node to the second node is limited according to the maintained transmission rate limit and window size.

  • Patent number: 11774944
    Abstract: An example data collection system in an industrial environment includes a data collector in communication with a number of input channels for acquiring collected data. The system includes a data storage that stored the collected data as a number of data pools. The system includes a self-organizing data marketplace engine that receives the data pools, and that is organized based on training a marketplace self-organization with a training set, and further based on feedback from measures of marketplace success with respect to the data pools.

  • Patent number: 10659378
    Abstract: A method for data communication between a first node and a second node over a number of data paths coupling the first node and the second node includes transmitting messages between the first node and the second node over the number of data paths including transmitting a first subset of the messages over a first data path of the number of data paths, and transmitting a second subset of the messages over a second data path of the number of data paths. The first data path has a first latency and the second data path has a second latency substantially larger than the first latency, and messages of the first subset of the messages are chosen to have first message characteristics and messages of the second subset are chosen to have second message characteristics, different from the first message characteristics.
