Abstract
A disclosed computing device may include (1) a storage device configured to store a database that identifies states of nodes included in a network and (2) circuitry configured to (A) receive one or more packet fragments that account for at least one change made to a state of one of the nodes in a transaction, (B) identify, among the packet fragments, a transaction identifier corresponding to the transaction and an indication of a total number of packet fragments representing the transaction, and (C) update the database to account for the change upon ensuring receipt of all the packet fragments representing the transaction based at least in part on the transaction identifier and the indication. Various other devices, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
