    摘要: A method of prioritizing messages on a Local Area Network comprises receiving a digitized incoming message, comparing a message signature of the incoming message with a stored priority message signature, passing non-priority messages to a standard Ethernet protocol stack for processing, storing priority messages temporarily, preventing priority messages from being processed in the standard Ethernet protocol stack, and handling priority messages using a simplified protocol stack designed to process a specific data packet type. This method may be performed by an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) inserted between an Ethernet PHY layer and Ethernet MAC layer on a Network Interface Card of a host device. In particular, automated machinery control systems using the Ethernet protocol for networking are intended to benefit from the prioritizing method and implementation.

    摘要: The present invention provides methods and apparatuses for implementing communications privacy on a class of two-way wireless control communications. The methods and apparatuses of the present invention are cryptographic in nature and are built on a symmetric cryptographic algorithm structure. The cryptographic algorithm structure generates keytext on a frame-by-frame basis and both directions of the communications control link are served by the same keytext frames. The methods and apparatuses of the present invention utilize a single outbound/inbound cryptographic generator, such as a shrinking generator or the like designed using six-sigma tools in order to ensure, within a predetermined probability, that the non-fixed encryption time does not cause operational problems.
