ABSTRACT:
A control system for routing data in an automatic identification system includes an event management system (EMS), a real-time in-memory data structure (RIED) and a task management system (TMS). The control system can be provided in a distributed hierarchical arrangement. The EMS of each control system can include filters which limit the amount of information provided to the next level in the hierarchy. In this manner the hierarchical control system network acts as a high volume data collector and processor. In some embodiments a level of the hierarchy can be removed spatially and/or temporally from an adjacent level in the hierarchy.
