A data processing network is for performing a plurality of successive data processing steps in a redundant and validated manner. The data processing steps are each used to generate output data from input data. At least some output data from a first data processing step are at the same time input data of a further data processing step. At least a first data processing module and a second data processing module are provided for performing each data processing step. The data processing network includes a comparator module. The first data processing module and the second data processing module are configured to perform the data processing steps, optionally in a first working mode with parallel operation, or in a second working mode with an upstream data processing module and a downstream data processing module.

Data processing network for performing reliable data processing

A data structure for a jointly utilized memory device, in particular, for inter-process communication, in an application system. The memory device includes a memory cell. The data structure includes a management structure, the management structure being configured to hold a pointer object to the memory cell.

Data structure, memory means and device

A method for providing a piece of data in a communication system. The method includes: allocating a memory means for updating data in the memory means, in particular by a producer, in particular in response to a request signal of the producer; updating the data in the provided memory means with the piece of data; providing the memory means for the purpose of being read out, in particular by a consumer, wherein, in the allocation step, the memory means is allocated as a function of a status of the memory means.

Method, computer program, electronic memory medium and device for providing a piece of data

A method for providing a datum in a receive buffer memory. The method includes storing the datum to be provided in the receive buffer memory, and retrieving an old datum from the receive buffer memory, if the receive buffer memory overflows as a result of storing the datum to be provided.

Method, computer program, electronic memory medium, device for providing a datum

A method for transmitting a message in a vehicle, in which the message is received according to a source protocol, a communication mechanism which is used by the message and corresponds to the source protocol is converted in such a way that the communication mechanism corresponds to a canonical protocol, the communication mechanism corresponding to the canonical protocol is converted in such a way that the communication mechanism corresponds to a predefined target protocol, and the message is transmitted according to the target protocol.

Method and device for transmitting a message in a vehicle

A method, a device, and a computer program for operating a data processing system, including at least two nodes that are connectable via a data line for transmitting messages. A message includes an identifier for arbitrating messages to be transmitted, the identifier containing&#x2014;information concerning a priority via which a processing sequence of messages ready for transmission is determined, and the identifier&#x2014;containing information concerning a network node, via which a sender of the message is unambiguously determined, and&#x2014;containing information concerning a service, via which a service is determined.

Method, device, and computer program for operating a data processing system

A gateway, operable in a hierarchical heterogeneous network, includes at least two interfaces of which at least one is connectable to a lower network level, and the communication protocols in the network provide a message for offering a service and a message for searching for a service, receipt of a message coming in from a lower network level in the gateway at an interface for offering a service, and/or an item of information identifying the offered service, is noted in the interface receiving this message or in a management unit assigned thereto, and receipt of a message from a lower network level in the gateway at an interface for searching for a service and/or an item of information identifying the sought service is noted in the interface or management unit, and if the messages relate to the same service, a message for the service availability is sent via the interface.

Method for operating a gateway in a hierarchical heterogeneous network by comparing offer messages and search messages received at the gateway regarding a service to determine if the messages relate to the same service and forwarding search messages that do not relate
