Abstract
Handling asynchronous data provided by at least two sources includes synchronizing data between the at least two sources, coordinating cycle switching between the at least two sources, where an asynchronous cycle of data from one of the sources corresponds to an asynchronous cycle of data from an other one of the sources, receiving asynchronous data corresponding to a data cycle from at least one of the sources, and saving at least some of the received data. A first portion of data for a particular cycle may be transmitted from one of the sources and a second portion of data for the particular cycle, different from the first portion of data, may be transmitted from an other one of the sources and the first portion and the second portion together may correspond to all of the data for the particular cycle.
