Control of multiple engines using one or more parameters associated with the multiple engines

A device, comprising:

• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to:
• identify a plurality of engines configured to provide power to a load,
• wherein the plurality of engines have a first set of priorities associated with providing the power to the load;
• obtain a plurality of parameters corresponding to the plurality of engines;
• determine a plurality of metrics corresponding to the plurality of engines based on the plurality of parameters;
• determine, based on the plurality of metrics, that a switching condition is satisfied to switch from the first set of priorities to a second set of priorities for the plurality of engines;
• determine, based on determining that the switching condition is satisfied, whether the device is ok to switch;
• and
• cause the plurality of engines to provide respective amounts of power to the load based on the first set of priorities when the device is not ok to switch and based on the second set of priorities when the device is ok to switch.

A system comprising:

• a plurality of engines;
• a plurality of monitoring devices configured to monitor the plurality of engines;
• a plurality of engine control modules corresponding to the plurality of engines;
• and
• a controller to:
• identify a first set of priorities associated with the plurality of engines providing power to a load;
• obtain a plurality of parameters from the plurality of monitoring devices;
• determine a plurality of metrics corresponding to the plurality of engines based on the plurality of parameters;
• determine, based on the plurality of metrics, that a switching condition is satisfied to switch from the first set of priorities to a second set of priorities associated with providing power to the load;
• determine, and based on determining that the switching condition is satisfied, whether the device is ok to switch;
• and
• cause the plurality of engine control modules to control the plurality of engines to provide respective amounts of power to the load based on the first set of priorities when the device is not ok to switch and based on the second set of priorities when the device is ok to switch.
