     In general, the present disclosure provides for an “Internet-of-Things” or “IoT” platform for enterprise performance management that uses real-time accurate models and visual analytics to deliver intelligent actionable recommendations for sustained peak performance of an enterprise or organization. The IoT platform is an extensible platform that is portable for deployment in any cloud or data center environment for providing an enterprise-wide, top to bottom view, displaying the status of processes, assets, people, and safety. Further, the IoT platform of the present disclosure supports end-to-end capability to execute models against process data and to translate the output into actionable insights, as detailed in the following description. 
     Traditionally, a majority amount of time (e.g., 60%-80% of time) related to data analytics and/or digital transformation of data involves cleaning and/or preparing the data for analysis. Furthermore, a limited amount of time is traditionally spent on modeling of the data to, for example, provide insights related to the data. As such, computing resources related to data analytics and/or digital transformation of data are traditionally employed in an inefficient manner. 
     As an example, it is generally difficult to model and/or consume internet of things (IoT) data provided directly from IoT devices. Generally, unstructured IoT data is retrieved from a database to attempt to provide insights with respect IoT data. However, this generally results in decreased processing performance for a computing system and/or increased utilization of computing resources for a computing system. 
     Thus, to address these and/or other issues, a contextualized time series database and/or contextualized time series data consumption is provided. According to various embodiments, adaptive ontology driven dimensions acquisition of telemetry data, automated tenant specific schema creation for parsing data in a contextualized time series database, and/or enriched data generation for the contextualized time series database is provided. Various embodiments described herein provide value to IoT data (e.g., telemetry data) such that IoT data is contextualized in relation to a user ecosystem. According to various embodiments, IoT data is contextualized and/or enriched to facilitate generation of a contextualized time series database and/or contextualized time series data consumption. According to various embodiments, contextualized IoT data provides spatial-based context and/or time-based context for the IoT data. According to various embodiments, contextualized IoT data is consumed directly from a single application programing interface (API) source. According to various embodiments, contextualized IoT data is scaled and/or stored as tagged enriched data for an extensible object model to facilitate generation of a contextualized time series database and/or contextualized time series data consumption. According to various embodiments, the extensible object model is a domain-intensive semantic object model. According to various embodiments, the contextualized time series database and/or the contextualized time series data consumption provides decreased utilization of computing resources for a computing system and/or increased performance for a computing system. 
     In various embodiments, data from one or more data sources is ingested, cleaned, aggregated and/or contextualized to provide contextualized time series data (e.g., spatial contextual information). In various embodiments, a data pipeline architecture acquires metadata from a hierarchical database and/or acquires streaming data from message queues related to industrial assets. Additionally, in various embodiments, the data pipeline architecture processes, parses and/or contextualizes the streaming data using the metadata to facilitate storage of the streaming data in a contextualized time series database. In various embodiments, data from one or more data sources is ingested, cleaned, aggregated and/or contextualized based on dimensionality information and/or filters that are employed to acquire the data from columns and/or properties related to incoming data. In various embodiments, the filters are configured for respective user identifiers, respective events, respective alarms, and/or a type of data source for storage of the data. In various embodiments, data from one or more data sources is ingested, cleaned, aggregated and/or contextualized based on metadata related to a functional role of a user identifier, an event identifier, an alarm identifier, spatial dimensionality of the data and/or a contextualized time series database, asset information related to data, algorithm parameters related to contextualization of data into a contextualized time series database, and/or other types of metadata. In various embodiments, an insert, update, delete pipeline is employed to manage data stored in a contextualized time series database. In various embodiments, a type of operation to perform with respect to data is determined based on header data for a data packet associated with the data. In various embodiments, a timestamp is correlated with an insert operation, an update operation, and/or a delete operation with respect to data associated with a contextualized time series database. 
     In various embodiments, one or more insights are determined from the contextualized time series data to provide cost savings and/or efficiency insights. In one or more embodiments, data is retrieved from one or more data sources and the data is unified in a contextualized time series database. In one or more embodiments, the contextualized time series database is updated at one or more predetermined intervals to keep data in the contextualized time series database up to date. According to one or more embodiments, the contextualized time series data in the contextualized time series database is made uniform by recognizing different attributes associated with the contextualized time series data. In one or more embodiments, the contextualized time series data in the contextualized time series database is organized in an ontological structure. In one or more embodiments, the ontological structure allows complex structures to be understood (e.g., “which building have uncomfortable temperature higher than 22 degrees Celsius,” “which zone has a temperature higher than 22 degrees Celsius,” “what is the unit of measure at this point,” “what is the average temperature in building ABC,” etc.). 
     As such, by employing one or more techniques disclosed herein, asset performance is optimized. Moreover, by employing one or more techniques disclosed herein, improved insights for one or more assets can be provided to a user via improved visual indicators associated with a graphical user interface. For instance, by employing one or more techniques disclosed herein, additional and/or improved insights as compared to capabilities of conventional techniques can be achieved across a data set. Additionally, performance of a processing system associated with data analytics is improved by employing one or more techniques disclosed herein. For example, a number of computing resources, a number of a storage requirements, and/or number of errors associated with data analytics is reduced by employing one or more techniques disclosed herein.

       FIG.  2    illustrates a schematic block diagram of framework  200  of the IoT platform  125 , according to the present disclosure. The IoT platform  125  of the present disclosure is a platform for enterprise performance management that uses real-time accurate models and visual analytics to deliver intelligent actionable recommendations and/or analytics for sustained peak performance of the enterprise  160   a - 160   n . The IoT platform  125  is an extensible platform that is portable for deployment in any cloud or data center environment for providing an enterprise-wide, top to bottom view, displaying the status of processes, assets, people, and safety. Further, the IoT platform  125  supports end-to-end capability to execute digital twins against process data and to translate the output into actionable insights, using the framework  200 , detailed further below. 
     As shown in  FIG.  2   , the framework  200  of the IoT platform  125  comprises a number of layers including, for example, an IoT layer  205 , an enterprise integration layer  210 , a data pipeline layer  215 , a data insight layer  220 , an application services layer  225 , and an applications layer  230 . The IoT platform  125  also includes a core services layer  235  and an extensible object model (EOM)  250  comprising one or more knowledge graphs  251 . The layers  205 - 235  further include various software components that together form each layer  205 - 235 . For example, in one or more embodiments, each layer  205 - 235  includes one or more of the modules  141 , models  142 , engines  143 , databases  144 , services  145 , applications  146 , or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the layers  205 - 235  are combined to form fewer layers. In some embodiments, some of the layers  205 - 235  are separated into separate, more numerous layers. In some embodiments, some of the layers  205 - 235  are removed while others may be added. 
     The IoT platform  125  is a model-driven architecture. Thus, the extensible object model  250  communicates with each layer  205 - 230  to contextualize site data of the enterprise  160   a - 160   n  using an extensible graph-based object model (or “asset model”). In one or more embodiments, the extensible object model  250  is associated with knowledge graphs  251  where the equipment (e.g., edge devices  161   a - 161   n ) and processes of the enterprise  160   a - 160   n  are modeled. The knowledge graphs  251  of EOM  250  are configured to store the models in a central location. The knowledge graphs  251  define a collection of nodes and links that describe real-world connections that enable smart systems. As used herein, a knowledge graph  251 : (i) describes real-world entities (e.g., edge devices  161   a - 161   n ) and their interrelations organized in a graphical interface; (ii) defines possible classes and relations of entities in a schema; (iii) enables interrelating arbitrary entities with each other; and (iv) covers various topical domains. In other words, the knowledge graphs  251  define large networks of entities (e.g., edge devices  161   a - 161   n ), semantic types of the entities, properties of the entities, and relationships between the entities. Thus, the knowledge graphs  251  describe a network of “things” that are relevant to a specific domain or to an enterprise or organization. Knowledge graphs  251  are not limited to abstract concepts and relations, but can also contain instances of objects, such as, for example, documents and datasets. In some embodiments, the knowledge graphs  251  include resource description framework (RDF) graphs. As used herein, a “RDF graph” is a graph data model that formally describes the semantics, or meaning, of information. The RDF graph also represents metadata (e.g., data that describes data). According to various embodiments, knowledge graphs  251  also include a semantic object model. The semantic object model is a subset of a knowledge graph  251  that defines semantics for the knowledge graph  251 . For example, the semantic object model defines the schema for the knowledge graph  251 . 
     As used herein, EOM  250  includes a collection of APIs that enables seeded semantic object models to be extended. For example, the EOM  250  of the present disclosure enables a user&#39;s knowledge graph  251  to be built subject to constraints expressed in the user&#39;s semantic object model. Thus, the knowledge graphs  251  are generated by users (e.g., enterprises or organizations) to create models of the edge devices  161   a - 161   n  of an enterprise  160   a - 160   n , and the knowledge graphs  251  are input into the EOM  250  for visualizing the models (e.g., the nodes and links). 
     The models describe the assets (e.g., the nodes) of an enterprise (e.g., the edge devices  161   a - 161   n ) and describe the relationship of the assets with other components (e.g., the links). The models also describe the schema (e.g., describe what the data is), and therefore the models are self-validating. For example, in one or more embodiments, the model describes the type of sensors mounted on any given asset (e.g., edge device  161   a - 161   n ) and the type of data that is being sensed by each sensor. According to various embodiments, a KPI framework is used to bind properties of the assets in the extensible object model  250  to inputs of the KPI framework. Accordingly, the IoT platform  125  is an extensible, model-driven end-to-end stack including: two-way model sync and secure data exchange between the edge  115  and the cloud  105 , metadata driven data processing (e.g., rules, calculations, and aggregations), and model driven visualizations and applications. As used herein, “extensible” refers to the ability to extend a data model to include new properties/columns/fields, new classes/tables, and new relations. Thus, the IoT platform  125  is extensible with regards to edge devices  161   a - 161   n  and the applications  146  that handle those devices  161   a - 161   n . For example, when new edge devices  161   a - 161   n  are added to an enterprise  160   a - 160   n  system, the new devices  161   a - 161   n  will automatically appear in the IoT platform  125  so that the corresponding applications  146  understand and use the data from the new devices  161   a - 161   n.    
     In some cases, asset templates are used to facilitate configuration of instances of edge devices  161   a - 161   n  in the model using common structures. An asset template defines the typical properties for the edge devices  161   a - 161   n  of a given enterprise  160   a - 160   n  for a certain type of device. For example, an asset template of a pump includes modeling the pump having inlet and outlet pressures, speed, flow, etc. The templates may also include hierarchical or derived types of edge devices  161   a - 161   n  to accommodate variations of a base type of device  161   a - 161   n . For example, a reciprocating pump is a specialization of a base pump type and would include additional properties in the template. Instances of the edge device  161   a - 161   n  in the model are configured to match the actual, physical devices of the enterprise  160   a - 160   n  using the templates to define expected attributes of the device  161   a - 161   n . Each attribute is configured either as a static value (e.g., capacity is 1000 BPH) or with a reference to a time series tag that provides the value. The knowledge graph  251  can automatically map the tag to the attribute based on naming conventions, parsing, and matching the tag and attribute descriptions and/or by comparing the behavior of the time series data with expected behavior. In one or more embodiments, each of the key attribute contributing to one or more metrics to drive a dashboard is marked with one or more metric tags such that a dashboard visualization is generated. 
     The modeling phase includes an onboarding process for syncing the models between the edge  115  and the cloud  105 . For example, in one or more embodiments, the onboarding process includes a simple onboarding process, a complex onboarding process, and/or a standardized rollout process. The simple onboarding process includes the knowledge graph  251  receiving raw model data from the edge  115  and running context discovery algorithms to generate the model. The context discovery algorithms read the context of the edge naming conventions of the edge devices  161   a - 161   n  and determine what the naming conventions refer to. For example, in one or more embodiments, the knowledge graph  251  receives “TMP” during the modeling phase and determine that “TMP” relates to “temperature.” The generated models are then published. The complex onboarding process includes the knowledge graph  251  receiving the raw model data, receiving point history data, and receiving site survey data. According to various embodiments, the knowledge graph  251  then uses these inputs to run the context discovery algorithms. According to various embodiments, the generated models are edited and then the models are published. The standardized rollout process includes manually defining standard models in the cloud  105  and pushing the models to the edge  115 . 
     The IoT layer  205  includes one or more components for device management, data ingest, and/or command/control of the edge devices  161   a - 161   n . The components of the IoT layer  205  enable data to be ingested into, or otherwise received at, the IoT platform  125  from a variety of sources. For example, in one or more embodiments, data is ingested from the edge devices  161   a - 161   n  through process historians or laboratory information management systems. The IoT layer  205  is in communication with the edge connectors  165   a - 165   n  installed on the edge gateways  162   a - 162   n  through network  110 , and the edge connectors  165   a - 165   n  send the data securely to the IoT layer  205 . In some embodiments, only authorized data is sent to the IoT platform  125 , and the IoT platform  125  only accepts data from authorized edge gateways  162   a - 162   n  and/or edge devices  161   a - 161   n . According to various embodiments, data is sent from the edge gateways  162   a - 162   n  to the IoT platform  125  via direct streaming and/or via batch delivery. Further, after any network or system outage, data transfer will resume once communication is re-established and any data missed during the outage will be backfilled from the source system or from a cache of the IoT platform  125 . According to various embodiments, the IoT layer  205  also includes components for accessing time series, alarms and events, and transactional data via a variety of protocols. 
     The enterprise integration layer  210  includes one or more components for events/messaging, file upload, and/or REST/OData. The components of the enterprise integration layer  210  enable the IoT platform  125  to communicate with third party cloud applications  211 , such as any application(s) operated by an enterprise in relation to its edge devices. For example, the enterprise integration layer  210  connects with enterprise databases, such as guest databases, user databases, financial databases, patient databases, etc. The enterprise integration layer  210  provides a standard API to third parties for accessing the IoT platform  125 . The enterprise integration layer  210  also enables the IoT platform  125  to communicate with the OT systems  163   a - 163   n  and IT applications  164   a - 164   n  of the enterprise  160   a - 160   n . Thus, the enterprise integration layer  210  enables the IoT platform  125  to receive data from the third-party applications  211  rather than, or in combination with, receiving the data from the edge devices  161   a - 161   n  directly. 
     The data pipeline layer  215  includes one or more components for data cleansing/enriching, data transformation, data calculations/aggregations, and/or API for data streams. Accordingly, in one or more embodiments, the data pipeline layer  215  pre-processes and/or performs initial analytics on the received data. The data pipeline layer  215  executes advanced data cleansing routines including, for example, data correction, mass balance reconciliation, data conditioning, component balancing and simulation to ensure the desired information is used as a basis for further processing. The data pipeline layer  215  also provides advanced and fast computation. For example, cleansed data is run through enterprise-specific digital twins. According to various embodiments, the enterprise-specific digital twins include a reliability advisor containing process models to determine the current operation and the fault models to trigger any early detection and determine an appropriate resolution. According to various embodiments, the digital twins also include an optimization advisor that integrates real-time economic data with real-time process data, selects the right feed for a process, and determines optimal process conditions and product yields. 
     According to various embodiments, the data pipeline layer  215  employs models and templates to define calculations and analytics. Additionally or alternatively, according to various embodiments, the data pipeline layer  215  employs models and templates to define how the calculations and analytics relate to the assets (e.g., the edge devices  161   a - 161   n ). For example, in an embodiment, a pump template defines pump efficiency calculations such that every time a pump is configured, the standard efficiency calculation is automatically executed for the pump. The calculation model defines the various types of calculations, the type of engine that should run the calculations, the input and output parameters, the preprocessing requirement and prerequisites, the schedule, etc. According to various embodiments, the actual calculation or analytic logic is defined in the template or it may be referenced. Thus, according to various embodiments, the calculation model is employed to describe and control the execution of a variety of different process models. According to various embodiments, calculation templates are linked with the asset templates such that when an asset (e.g., edge device  161   a - 161   n ) instance is created, any associated calculation instances are also created with their input and output parameters linked to the appropriate attributes of the asset (e.g., edge device  161   a - 161   n ). 
     According to various embodiments, the IoT platform  125  supports a variety of different analytics models including, for example, first principles models, empirical models, engineered models, user-defined models, machine learning models, built-in functions, and/or any other types of analytics models. Fault models and predictive maintenance models will now be described by way of example, but any type of models may be applicable. 
     Fault models are used to compare current and predicted enterprise  160   a - 160   n  performance to identify issues or opportunities, and the potential causes or drivers of the issues or opportunities. The IoT platform  125  includes rich hierarchical symptom-fault models to identify abnormal conditions and their potential consequences. For example, in one or more embodiments, the IoT platform  125  drill downs from a high-level condition to understand the contributing factors, as well as determining the potential impact a lower level condition may have. There may be multiple fault models for a given enterprise  160   a - 160   n  looking at different aspects such as process, equipment, control, and/or operations. According to various embodiments, each fault model identifies issues and opportunities in their domain, and can also look at the same core problem from a different perspective. According to various embodiments, an overall fault model is layered on top to synthesize the different perspectives from each fault model into an overall assessment of the situation and point to the true root cause. 
     According to various embodiments, when a fault or opportunity is identified, the IoT platform  125  provides recommendations about an optimal corrective action to take. Initially, the recommendations are based on expert knowledge that has been pre-programmed into the system by process and equipment experts. A recommendation services module presents this information in a consistent way regardless of source, and supports workflows to track, close out, and document the recommendation follow-up. According to various embodiments, the recommendation follow-up is employed to improve the overall knowledge of the system over time as existing recommendations are validated (or not) or new cause and effect relationships are learned by users and/or analytics. 
     According to various embodiments, the models are used to accurately predict what will occur before it occurs and interpret the status of the installed base. Thus, the IoT platform  125  enables operators to quickly initiate maintenance measures when irregularities occur. According to various embodiments, the digital twin architecture of the IoT platform  125  employs a variety of modeling techniques. According to various embodiments, the modeling techniques include, for example, rigorous models, fault detection and diagnostics (FDD), descriptive models, predictive maintenance, prescriptive maintenance, process optimization, and/or any other modeling technique. 
     According to various embodiments, the rigorous models are converted from process design simulation. In this manner, process design is integrated with feed conditions and production requirement. Process changes and technology improvement provide business opportunities that enable more effective maintenance schedule and deployment of resources in the context of production needs. The fault detection and diagnostics include generalized rule sets that are specified based on industry experience and domain knowledge and can be easily incorporated and used working together with equipment models. According to various embodiments, the descriptive models identifies a problem and the predictive models determines possible damage levels and maintenance options. According to various embodiments, the descriptive models include models for defining the operating windows for the edge devices  161   a - 161   n.    
     Predictive maintenance includes predictive analytics models developed based on rigorous models and statistic models, such as, for example, principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square (PLS). According to various embodiments, machine learning methods are applied to train models for fault prediction. According to various embodiments, predictive maintenance leverages FDD-based algorithms to continuously monitor individual control and equipment performance. Predictive modeling is then applied to a selected condition indicator that deteriorates in time. Prescriptive maintenance includes determining an optimal maintenance option and when it should be performed based on actual conditions rather than time-based maintenance schedule. According to various embodiments, prescriptive analysis selects the right solution based on the company&#39;s capital, operational, and/or other requirements. Process optimization is determining optimal conditions via adjusting set-points and schedules. The optimized set-points and schedules can be communicated directly to the underlying controllers, which enables automated closing of the loop from analytics to control. 
     The data insight layer  220  includes one or more components for time series databases (TDSB), relational/document databases, data lakes, blob, files, images, and videos, and/or an API for data query. According to various embodiments, when raw data is received at the IoT platform  125 , the raw data is stored as time series tags or events in warm storage (e.g., in a TSDB) to support interactive queries and to cold storage for archive purposes. According to various embodiments, data is sent to the data lakes for offline analytics development. According to various embodiments, the data pipeline layer  215  accesses the data stored in the databases of the data insight layer  220  to perform analytics, as detailed above. 
     The application services layer  225  includes one or more components for rules engines, workflow/notifications, KPI framework, insights (e.g., actionable insights), decisions, recommendations, machine learning, and/or an API for application services. The application services layer  225  enables building of applications  146   a - d . The applications layer  230  includes one or more applications  146   a - d  of the IoT platform  125 . For example, according to various embodiments, the applications  146   a - d  includes a buildings application  146   a , a plants application  146   b , an aero application  146   c , and other enterprise applications  146   d . According to various embodiments, the applications  146  includes general applications  146  for portfolio management, asset management, autonomous control, and/or any other custom applications. According to various embodiments, portfolio management includes the KPI framework and a flexible user interface (UI) builder. According to various embodiments, asset management includes asset performance and asset health. According to various embodiments, autonomous control includes energy optimization and/or predictive maintenance. As detailed above, according to various embodiments, the general applications  146  is extensible such that each application  146  is configurable for the different types of enterprises  160   a - 160   n  (e.g., buildings application  146   a , plants application  146   b , aero application  146   c , and other enterprise applications  146   d ). 
     The applications layer  230  also enables visualization of performance of the enterprise  160   a - 160   n . For example, dashboards provide a high-level overview with drill downs to support deeper investigations. Recommendation summaries give users prioritized actions to address current or potential issues and opportunities. Data analysis tools support ad hoc data exploration to assist in troubleshooting and process improvement. 
     The core services layer  235  includes one or more services of the IoT platform  125 .

The platform may include an internal communication bus  1410 , and the platform also may include a program storage and/or a data storage for various data files to be processed and/or communicated by the platform such as ROM  1430  and RAM  1440 , although the system  1400  may receive programming and data via network communications. The system  1400  also may include input and output ports  1450  to connect with input and output devices such as keyboards, mice, touchscreens, monitors, displays, etc. Of course, the various system functions may be implemented in a distributed fashion on a number of similar platforms, to distribute the processing load. Alternatively, the systems may be implemented by appropriate programming of one computer hardware platform. 
     The general discussion of this disclosure provides a brief, general description of a suitable computing environment in which the present disclosure may be implemented. In one embodiment, any of the disclosed systems, methods, and/or graphical user interfaces may be executed by or implemented by a computing system consistent with or similar to that depicted and/or explained in this disclosure. Although not required, aspects of the present disclosure are described in the context of computer-executable instructions, such as routines executed by a data processing device, e.g., a server computer, wireless device, and/or personal computer. Those skilled in the relevant art will appreciate that aspects of the present disclosure can be practiced with other communications, data processing, or computer system configurations, including: Internet appliances, hand-held devices (including personal digital assistants (“PDAs”)), wearable computers, all manner of cellular or mobile phones (including Voice over IP (“VoIP”) phones), dumb terminals, media players, gaming devices, virtual reality devices, multi-processor systems, microprocessor-based or programmable consumer electronics, set-top boxes, network PCs, mini-computers, mainframe computers, and the like. Indeed, the terms “computer,” “server,” and the like, are generally used interchangeably herein, and refer to any of the above devices and systems, as well as any data processor. 
     Aspects of the present disclosure may be embodied in a special purpose computer and/or data processor that is specifically programmed, configured, and/or constructed to perform one or more of the computer-executable instructions explained in detail herein. While aspects of the present disclosure, such as certain functions, are described as being performed exclusively on a single device, the present disclosure also may be practiced in distributed environments where functions or modules are shared among disparate processing devices, which are linked through a communications network, such as a Local Area Network (“LAN”), Wide Area Network (“WAN”), and/or the Internet. Similarly, techniques presented herein as involving multiple devices may be implemented in a single device. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in both local and/or remote memory storage devices. 
     Aspects of the present disclosure may be stored and/or distributed on non-transitory computer-readable media, including magnetically or optically readable computer discs, hard-wired or preprogrammed chips (e.g., EEPROM semiconductor chips), nanotechnology memory, biological memory, or other data storage media. Alternatively, computer implemented instructions, data structures, screen displays, and other data under aspects of the present disclosure may be distributed over the Internet and/or over other networks (including wireless networks), on a propagated signal on a propagation medium (e.g., an electromagnetic wave(s), a sound wave, etc.) over a period of time, and/or they may be provided on any analog or digital network (packet switched, circuit switched, or other scheme). 
     Program aspects of the technology may be thought of as “products” or “articles of manufacture” typically in the form of executable code and/or associated data that is carried on or embodied in a type of machine-readable medium. “Storage” type media include any or all of the tangible memory of the computers, processors or the like, or associated modules thereof, such as various semiconductor memories, tape drives, disk drives and the like, which may provide non-transitory storage at any time for the software programming. All or portions of the software may at times be communicated through the Internet or various other telecommunication networks. Such communications, for example, may enable loading of the software from one computer or processor into another, for example, from a management server or host computer of the mobile communication network into the computer platform of a server and/or from a server to the mobile device. Thus, another type of media that may bear the software elements includes optical, electrical and electromagnetic waves, such as used across physical interfaces between local devices, through wired and optical landline networks and over various air-links. The physical elements that carry such waves, such as wired or wireless links, optical links, or the like, also may be considered as media bearing the software. As used herein, unless restricted to non-transitory, tangible “storage” media, terms such as computer or machine “readable medium” refer to any medium that participates in providing instructions to a processor for execution. 
     In some example embodiments, certain ones of the operations herein can be modified or further amplified as described below. Moreover, in some embodiments additional optional operations can also be included. It should be appreciated that each of the modifications, optional additions or amplifications described herein can be included with the operations herein either alone or in combination with any others among the features described herein. 
     The foregoing method descriptions and the process flow diagrams are provided merely as illustrative examples and are not intended to require or imply that the steps of the various embodiments must be performed in the order presented. As will be appreciated by one of skill in the art the order of steps in the foregoing embodiments can be performed in any order. Words such as “thereafter,” “then,” “next,” etc. are not intended to limit the order of the steps; these words are simply used to guide the reader through the description of the methods. Further, any reference to claim elements in the singular, for example, using the articles “a,” “an” or “the” is not to be construed as limiting the element to the singular. 
     It is to be appreciated that ‘one or more’ includes a function being performed by one element, a function being performed by more than one element, e.g., in a distributed fashion, several functions being performed by one element, several functions being performed by several elements, or any combination of the above. 
     Moreover, it will also be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. are, in some instances, used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first contact could be termed a second contact, and, similarly, a second contact could be termed a first contact, without departing from the scope of the various described embodiments. The first contact and the second contact are both contacts, but they are not the same contact. 
     The terminology used in the description of the various described embodiments herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used in the description of the various described embodiments and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term “and/or” as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “includes,” “including,” “comprises,” and/or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof. 
     As used herein, the term “if” is, optionally, construed to mean “when” or “upon” or “in response to determining” or “in response to detecting,” depending on the context. Similarly, the phrase “if it is determined” or “if [a stated condition or event] is detected” is, optionally, construed to mean “upon determining” or “in response to determining” or “upon detecting [the stated condition or event]” or “in response to detecting [the stated condition or event],” depending on the context. 
     The systems, apparatuses, devices, and methods disclosed herein are described in detail by way of examples and with reference to the figures. The examples discussed herein are examples only and are provided to assist in the explanation of the apparatuses, devices, systems, and methods described herein. None of the features or components shown in the drawings or discussed below should be taken as mandatory for any specific implementation of any of these the apparatuses, devices, systems or methods unless specifically designated as mandatory. For ease of reading and clarity, certain components, modules, or methods may be described solely in connection with a specific figure. In this disclosure, any identification of specific techniques, arrangements, etc. are either related to a specific example presented or are merely a general description of such a technique, arrangement, etc. Identifications of specific details or examples are not intended to be, and should not be, construed as mandatory or limiting unless specifically designated as such. Any failure to specifically describe a combination or sub-combination of components should not be understood as an indication that any combination or sub-combination is not possible. It will be appreciated that modifications to disclosed and described examples, arrangements, configurations, components, elements, apparatuses, devices, systems, methods, etc. can be made and may be desired for a specific application. Also, for any methods described, regardless of whether the method is described in conjunction with a flow diagram, it should be understood that unless otherwise specified or required by context, any explicit or implicit ordering of steps performed in the execution of a method does not imply that those steps must be performed in the order presented but instead may be performed in a different order or in parallel. 
     Throughout this disclosure, references to components or modules generally refer to items that logically can be grouped together to perform a function or group of related functions. Like reference numerals are generally intended to refer to the same or similar components. Components and modules can be implemented in software, hardware, or a combination of software and hardware. The term “software” is used expansively to include not only executable code, for example machine-executable or machine-interpretable instructions, but also data structures, data stores and computing instructions stored in any suitable electronic format, including firmware, and embedded software. The terms “information” and “data” are used expansively and includes a wide variety of electronic information, including executable code; content such as text, video data, and audio data, among others; and various codes or flags. The terms “information,” “data,” and “content” are sometimes used interchangeably when permitted by context. 
     The hardware used to implement the various illustrative logics, logical blocks, modules, and circuits described in connection with the aspects disclosed herein can include a general purpose processor, a digital signal processor (DSP), a special-purpose processor such as an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a programmable logic device, discrete gate or transistor logic, discrete hardware components, or any combination thereof designed to perform the functions described herein. A general-purpose processor can be a microprocessor, but, in the alternative, the processor can be any processor, controller, microcontroller, or state machine. A processor can also be implemented as a combination of computing devices, e.g., a combination of a DSP and a microprocessor, a plurality of microprocessors, one or more microprocessors in conjunction with a DSP core, or any other such configuration. Alternatively, or in addition, some steps or methods can be performed by circuitry that is specific to a given function. 
     In one or more example embodiments, the functions described herein can be implemented by special-purpose hardware or a combination of hardware programmed by firmware or other software. In implementations relying on firmware or other software, the functions can be performed as a result of execution of one or more instructions stored on one or more non-transitory computer-readable media and/or one or more non-transitory processor-readable media. These instructions can be embodied by one or more processor-executable software modules that reside on the one or more non-transitory computer-readable or processor-readable storage media. Non-transitory computer-readable or processor-readable storage media can in this regard comprise any storage media that can be accessed by a computer or a processor. By way of example but not limitation, such non-transitory computer-readable or processor-readable media can include random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), FLASH memory, disk storage, magnetic storage devices, or the like. Disk storage, as used herein, includes compact disc (CD), laser disc, optical disc, digital versatile disc (DVD), floppy disk, and Blu-ray Disc™, or other storage devices that store data magnetically or optically with lasers. Combinations of the above types of media are also included within the scope of the terms non-transitory computer-readable and processor-readable media. Additionally, any combination of instructions stored on the one or more non-transitory processor-readable or computer-readable media can be referred to herein as a computer program product. 
     Many modifications and other embodiments of the inventions set forth herein will come to mind to one skilled in the art to which these inventions pertain having the benefit of teachings presented in the foregoing descriptions and the associated drawings. Although the figures only show certain components of the apparatus and systems described herein, it is understood that various other components can be used in conjunction with the supply management system. Therefore, it is to be understood that the inventions are not to be limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and that modifications and other embodiments are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims. Moreover, the steps in the method described above can not necessarily occur in the order depicted in the accompanying diagrams, and in some cases one or more of the steps depicted can occur substantially simultaneously, or additional steps can be involved. Although specific terms are employed herein, they are used in a generic and descriptive sense only and not for purposes of limitation. 
     It is intended that the specification and examples be considered as exemplary only, with a true scope and spirit of the disclosure being indicated by the following claims.
