PROVIDING VIRTUAL MARKERS BASED UPON NETWORK CONNECTIVITY

Application US20260100899A1 Kind: A1 Apr 09, 2026

Inventors

Evan V. Chrapko, Leo M. Chan

Abstract

A system is provided wherein a processor in a distributed network system determines a network connectivity value associated with a first node in a network of a plurality of nodes. The connectivity value is determined as a function of a number of markers of a virtual marker system associated with the first node. Determining the connectivity value may be accomplished by distributing the tasks to distributed processors associated with various network nodes. The processors perform their respective computing task before reporting results. A virtual marker system for use within the network may be provided. Markers in the marker system may be provided based on network connectivity value.
