Abstract

A device that is communicating with other devices via a common bus discovers addresses of the other devices. The device transmits data to the other devices at a transmit time determined based on the addresses of the other devices. The device predicts receive times at which data will be received from the other devices and determines the transmit time based on predicted receive times, avoiding data collisions. The devices may include universal sensor data acquisition devices ('USDADs') that are each connectable to different types of sensors arranged within a server rack. Each USDAD determines a type of a connected sensor that is within a server rack and collects sensor data from the connected sensor.
