ABSTRACT:
Each member system of a distributed collection of self-monitoring hardware systems includes receiving logic operative to receive a wellness token from a first other hardware system of the distributed collection of hardware systems. Each member system also includes modification logic, communicatively coupled to the receiving logic, operative to modify the wellness token to create a modified wellness token in a manner that reflects the wellness of the member hardware system, and transmitting logic, communicatively coupled to the modification logic, operative to transmit the modified wellness token to a second other hardware system of the distributed collection of hardware systems.
