Abstract
A data and object monitoring and response system comprising a three tier infrastructure for optimization of interoperability and task specific adaptability. The system gathers information from a plurality of distributed data gathering units and assimilates, processes, analyzes and distributes the gathered data within a common system with rule based data processing for coordinated response to the data. The data gatehring units can be locally distributed or widely disbursed. The information gathered can be real-time collection of event data, historical data, systems monitoring, or other data. Regardless of the specific nature of the data, the system taught in the present invention, addresses a number of common problems associated with the collection, assimilation, processing of data. By dividing the system into a three tier interactive structure, the data can be gathered, evaluated and processed independently and efficiently and appropriate response can be effectively implemented. The processing tier, which includes the rules for analysis of the data, exists independent of the operator interface and data gathering tiers. A wide diversity of data collection equipment can be accommodat…
