Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus for monitoring, alerting, and acting, including the following steps. Input data is received from one or more sensory devices. One or more data weights are determined for the input data based on a weight corresponding to a source of the input data, a weight corresponding to a time the input data was received, and a weight corresponding to a frequency that the input data was received. A set of rules is evaluated based on the input data and the data weights. One or more actions, including a heirarchy of one or more alerts, are activated based on the results of the evaluation of the rules.
