A system for tracking resource parameters includes a resource having an associated memory tag; a parameter sensing element sensing a parameter of the resource; and a memory tag reader/writer. The system is configured to store information gathered from the parameter sensing element on the memory tag.

Logical connections between nodes in a network can be established by the following steps: generation of an identifier by each group of logically connected nodes in the network; exchange of identifiers between physically connected groups of logically connected nodes; and establishment of logical connections between physically connected groups of logically connected nodes for which the exchanged identifiers differ. Repeatedly carried out, these steps can allow a network without logical loops to be built up from individual nodes.
