Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods and reconfigurable systems are provided for monitoring the health of a complex system. The system may include, but is not limited to a computing node including a memory and a processor. The processor can be configured to receive a plurality of standardized executable application modules, each standardized executable application module containing instructions to perform one of a plurality of different standardized functions, receive a binary file comprising instructions, which when loaded into memory by the processor, configure the standardized executable application modules and configure the memory by creating at least one data structure in the memory used by at least one of the plurality of standardized executable application modules.
