In an embodiment, a computing node includes a computing circuit, a comparing circuit, and an indicator circuit. The computing circuit is configured to receive each of at least one input-data message. The comparing circuit is configured to compare each of the at least one received input-data message to a list of input-data-message identifiers. And the indicator circuit is configured, for each of the at least one input-data message that corresponds to a respective input-data-message identifier, to generate a respective portion of a first status message, the respective portion indicating that the input-data message was received. For example, such computing node can determine the congruency of a received input-data message between coupled redundancy circuits with reduced processing overhead, reduced message delay, and reduced message latency as compared to existing computer nodes.
A method, comprising:
The method of claim wherein comparing each of the at least one received input-data message to the list of input-data-message identifiers includes comparing a message identifier of the received input-data message to the list of input-data-message identifiers.
The method of claim wherein generating the respective portion of the first status message includes setting a respective bit of the first status message to a value indicating that the corresponding input-data message was received.
The method of claim wherein generating the respective portion of the first status message includes transitioning a respective bit of the first status message from a value indicating that the corresponding input-data message was not received to a value indicating that the corresponding input-data message was received.
A computing node, comprising:
A tangible non-transient readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing circuit, cause the computing circuit or another circuit under control of the computing circuit:
