Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media provide a softprocessor that is executed by a hardware processing device of a sensor monitoring system and provide an application that is executed by the softprocessor being executed by the hardware processing device. The softprocessor may be compiled for different hardware processing devices such that the customized programming remains independent of the particular hardware processing device present in the computer monitoring system. Tools for creating the custom programming for the softprocessor may be provided to entities purchasing the softprocessor so that the entities are not dependent upon the entity creating the softprocessor.
