A method for allocating fog applications in a fog network with a plurality of fog nodes is suggested. The method comprises: - providing an application model; - providing a fog network image that reflects the properties of the fog network; - performing a resource usage test of the application model on the fog network image, and receiving resource requirements for the fog network; - creating a concrete application model based on the application model, wherein the concrete application model contains the received resource requirements; and - performing allocation of the concrete application model on one or more of the fog nodes of the fog network.

The present invention provides a system and method for advising wireless computer networks on inter-network interferences during their life time. The method of the present invention initially observes initial channel utilization profiles along with corresponding time-slots of dynamic network elements and network characteristics of a first network and stores as historical channel utilization profiles. The initial transmission profiles an interfering second network are also recorded. The threshold transmission profiles are then recorded as historical transmission profiles. The aggregator determines interference patterns, by comparing historical channel utilization profiles with runtime threshold transmission profiles and advises and pre-warns appropriate network actions to a network manager of the first network on the interference prone zones. The system of the present invention includes a first network with a common multi-network interference observer, to advise on inter-network interferences.

Systems and methods for configuring industrial devices through a secured wireless side channel may include a compute device. The compute device may have primary communication circuitry configured to communicate through a network and side channel communication circuitry configured to communicate through a wireless side channel that is different from the network. The compute device may additionally include circuitry configured to obtain, via the wireless side channel, configuration data indicative of a configuration for one or more operations of an industrial device of an industrial process plant. Additionally the circuitry may be configured to configure, in response to obtaining the configuration data, the one or more operations of the industrial device.

A method for generating corrected measured current in an Intelligent Electronic Device (IED) that is a true representation of primary current in an electrical network is disclosed. The method uses regression and a first threshold on measured sampled values from CT to detect a deviation instance that indicates a possibility of saturation. Wavelet and second threshold based detection of instances of saturation is then done. Then a regression based correction that uses a dynamic correction factor is implemented in real time to obtain corrected sampled values i.e. corrected measured current. Ending of correction is done based upon a predetermined selection criterion, The generated corrected measured current is used for protection and control functions in the IED. A CT output re-generation module as a functional module in the IED for implementing the method as described above is also disclosed.
