Thanks to the technology already developed, the advances in all sciences and the emerging developments of the future, new opportunities are opening up for the observer. The observer of time measurement can reinvent himself again and again today and in the future, literally from moment to moment.

Reinventing this can be mapped using a wide variety of parameters. There are almost no limits to the changes from very simple examples, such as the difference in body weight between two time measurement points, to donated blood that flows in his veins or artificial organs that make up his body.

The observer himself no longer has to be a human being today. It can be a robot, an autonomous system or a form of artificial intelligence.

Features and characteristics of the invention

This changing observer needs a measuring system that goes beyond mere time measurement.

In order to allow and support change, this measuring system must be able to question and review your own premises, your own routines, your own structural specifications and your own program specifications.

The invention presented here uses a so-called method or principle of action of "re-initiation" or "counter-priming" (English name) ( 21 ), which is about systematically resolving references to temporal, local, similar or even causal relationships, according to user requirements (a minimum distance value or equivalent), see drawing 5 ,

The basis of the "new course" are all parameters that are recorded by the system, in addition to the system time, see drawing 1 . 2 . 3 and 7 ,

This data acquisition can be done by sensor (50) , related application (60) , as well as immediate input (10) (in text form, image form etc.) or optional network entry (11) respectively.

What is recorded is only limited by the requirements of the user, his resources and the technical possibilities of the moment.

A sensor / application changer (70) , switches corresponding new or old sensors or applications on or off.

Structurally, the sensors can be used in system motion sensors (51) , System health sensors (52) and environmental sensors (53) be categorized, see drawing 2 ,

The categories of time resources are available for the structure of the connected applications (61) , Material resources (62) and network resources (63) on, see also drawing 2 ,

Depending on the observer, application and need, for example, GPS data (511) , Pedometer data (512) , Speedometer data (513) , Temperature sensor data (521) , Pressure sensor data (522) , Biometric sensors data (523) , Optical sensors data (531) , Ultrasonic sensor data (532) , Gas sensor data (533) , Radioactivity meter data (534) recorded and saved, see drawing 3 and 4 ,

In addition to the system clock, you can use it to determine the system range and the available resources (611) , a recording and storage of the energy level (621) the drive unit (90) , the system's financial resources (622) , the tasks and obligations of the system (612) , as well as the status of the active (631) and potential network resources (632) on, see drawing 3 ,

The recorded data is saved and a data processing, the so-called "re-initiation" process, see drawing 5 and the associated so-called process of setting and adjusting the process duration, see drawing 6 , fed.

The device can be regarded as a kind of alarm clock, which allows, based on the a) specifications and inputs of the observer (10) . (11) , b) of the collected data in real time (50) . (60) . (511) - ( 699 ) and c) of the generated and saved data records (40) ( 80 ) (see diagram 1 and 4 ) using the so-called procedure of new construction (see drawing 5 ), different accompanying circumstances of an alarm event (30) . (31) in a freely chosen period (see drawing 6 ) to generate.

However, the device does not only wake ( 30 ), ( 31 ) (see diagram 4 and 5 ). The device also produces change (21) ("Have all minimum distance values relative to previous wake-up events been reached ...?, See drawing 5 ), i.e. it generates different accompanying circumstances for a wake-up signal.

The change is based on the one hand on the changing parameters (50) . (60) (Current measured values) between two measuring points (see drawing 5 ) that are saved.

On the other hand, the change is based on the stored measurement data (40) (Data set of current measured values and data set of previous wake-up events) which are used to generate new measurement situations and reference or observation perspectives.

Combining this information, it can be said that not only what the observer observes changes, i.e. the measured value and the measured quality (see drawing 5 ), but also from which perspective or what "being" (new system state) this observation is made.

In this way, the device fulfills the objective and task of 1. questioning and checking one's own premises (“vital system parameters change here”, differently than in many other systems), 2. questioning one's own routines and to be able to check ("changing wake-up times here", differently than with many other systems), 3. Own structure specifications (70) (Sensors / application changer) (in other words, the structure can be changed with this device) and 4. to be able to question and check your own program specifications ("here, unlike many other systems, many system specifications are not considered to be fixed) ").

The so-called procedure or principle of operation of the new initiation ("Counter-Priming") ( 21 ), requires 3 different input values (10) : 1. Minimum distance values for parameters of particular interest, 2 , Target values for parameters of particular interest, 3 , Number of process cycles (see drawing 5 )

The entire process can be "cycle-driven" alone 3 input values (10) (see diagram 5 , only gray filled flowchart symbols) or "limited in time" by entering an additional fourth input, i.e. the total process duration (10) (see diagram 6 or drawing 5 and 6 for overall process).

Description of the device

The device can be a mobile, stationary or virtual system that by the drive unit (90) is driven and / or operated.

With the drive unit (90) , it may be a fueled engine, a separate but connected mobile platform, and / or a power supply.

Control commands and inputs are made via the direct input unit (10) and / or the optional remote / network input (11) , (see diagram 1 and 4 )

The control unit (20) in communication with the counter-priming unit (21) , as well as the planning unit (80) in interaction with the planning generator (81) , processes these inputs and commands in the "time-limited" mode. (In the "cycle-driven" mode, the planning generator (81) not required.)

Via a sensor / application changer (70) , the sensors are activated by control commands and inputs (50) respectively. (51) - ( 599 ) and related applications (60) respectively. (61) - (699) switched on and off, or detached and switched off (see drawing 1 . 2 . 3 and 7 ).

The measurement data of the sensors (50) respectively. (51) - ( 599 ), as well as the content of the connected applications (60) respectively. (61) - ( 699 ) are in the procedures of the new initiation / counter-priming unit (21) and the planning unit (80) (see diagram 5 ), as well as the planning generator (81) (see diagram 6 ) recorded, saved and processed.

The specific recording and storage takes place in the memory (40) , as well as in parallel in the buffer stores of the process units (21) . (80) and (81) instead of.

In accordance with the control commands, the control inputs and the methods, the collected and generated process data are made available to the user via direct output units (30) and / or the optional remote / network issues (31) communicated.

The end product, i.e. the wake-up signals, together with the data sets distinctive accompanying circumstances, are also about the direct output units (30) and / or the optional remote / network issues (31) communicated (see drawing 1 . 4 . 5 . 6 and 7 ).

Description of the process / device control

The so-called counter-priming process (English term for the process of "new initiation") 21, as a higher-level process, ensures and creates the different accompanying circumstances for the wake-up signals (see drawing 5 , only flowchart elements filled with gray).

At the beginning of the principle of counter-priming (21) , 3 different input values (10) Entered: 1. Minimum distance values for parameters of special interest, 2. Target values for parameters of special interest, 3. Number of process cycles (The user can choose whether the target values of special interest should be the same for each cycle, or be precisely specified , should be rather different.)

The minimum distance values serve to ensure that such parameters (which are of particular interest and are recorded) differ in accordance with the requirements of the user from alarm signal to alarm signal. They must differ from each other by at least the size of the minimum distance value entered by the user.

The minimum distance values apply to the overall process, which can consist of one or more cycles with corresponding wake-up signals.

If no minimum distance value has been defined for the cycle, the minimum distance value of the previous cycle is automatically adopted, if available.

Minimum distance values can be all values from the recording sensors (50) respectively. (51) - (599) and related applications (60) respectively. (61) - (699) measured and compared.

In addition to the different accompanying circumstances of the wake-up signals, which are produced by means of a minimum distance value, it is also a question of demanding the entire system, a minimum change performance or target values (target stages) / milestones.

By definition and system specification, the target values of a parameter are always larger than the minimum distance values of the same parameter, in order to rule out an equality of the accompanying circumstances of a wake-up signal from the outset.

The number of cycles defines the number of required wake-up signals within an overall process, which is initially set to "without end" by default (see drawing 6 ).

The overall process can therefore be "cycle-driven", i.e. the process is only "performance-defined" and is ended when the last requested wake-up signal has occurred, or the process is "time-limited" and the number of cycles is limited so that the wake-up signals to be produced and differing are all contained in this specified time windows fit.

In order to operate the device in "time-limited" mode, the so-called process or operating principle for setting and adapting the process duration is additionally activated (see drawing 6 ).

To operate the device in the “cycle-driven” mode, the basic structure of the process of rebuilding / counter-priming is sufficient (21) in drawing 5 (only gray flowchart symbols).

The logic of the process or principle of action (21) is structured in such a way that the focus is initially on reaching the target values of the "parameters of particular interest". This is checked with the question / decision "(21) Have all" target values "for the cycle been reached?" (See middle drawing 5 ).

If this is not the case, the user is informed of the "current difference to target values".

The so-called process or operating principle is now on hold, in anticipation that new measured values will be generated.

The new and current measured values are constantly compared with the "target value" specifications.

As soon as the "target values of special interest" are reached, the second question / decision of the process or principle of action moves (21) in the foreground, namely whether "... all" minimum distance values "relative to previous wake-up events have been reached ...?" (see center left drawing 5 ).

The answer to this second question is based on: 1. Record of previous wake-up events (40) 2 , The current measured values of all parameters (50) & (60) etc. 3. Linking the answer to the first question of “target values”

As soon as all 3 entries ( 1 , New wake-up data set, 2. All minimum distance values reached, 3. All target values reached) are confirmed positively, that is to say second question is "Yes", a "new alarm event" is displayed (30) and a wake-up signal is output (30).

The current measured values for this new alarm event are stored in a new data record (40) and linked to the data records of previous alarm events (40).

As long as the 3 entries for the second question are not all confirmed positively, i.e. not all 3 are set to "Yes", the system is again in a waiting loop, in anticipation that new measured values will be generated.

In this case, a display appears that documents the "necessary difference to" minimum distance values "".

As soon as a "new alarm event" with alarm signal (30) output, the counter "A" that was set at the beginning of the process with the 3rd input, namely the "number of process cycles" (see drawing 5 , top right) reduced by 1 (see drawing 5 , bottom left) and a new wake-up cycle started, which leads again via "Start".

This route via "Start" and thus the start of a new wake-up cycle is carried out as long and as often as long as the 3rd question / decision "( 21 ) Outstanding cycles = 0? ”Is answered with“ No ”.

Is the answer to the third question / decision “( 21 ) Outstanding cycles = 0? "" Yes ", the process ends with the" Stop ".

In the "limited time" mode, which is entered by entering the total process time for the 4th time (see drawing 6 ) is activated, are also the planning unit (80) and the planning generator (81) included, as well as the flowchart elements in the drawing 5 ,

drawing 6 , lower margin, shows the interface to the drawing 5 ,

In addition to entering the total process time, 2 processes and 2 data record sources provide the basic data for the "process or operating principle for setting and adapting the process time" (drawing 6 ).

The 2 Processes are: 1. Creation of the "Type" and "Duration" lists, waiting times for the entire cycle, 2. Reduced counters A

The 2 Record sources are: 1. (40) Record of previous alarm events 2 , (80) Specifications planned pending alarm events

The "List and total waiting times" data records for all cycles are generated from the "Type" and "Duration" waiting times for the entire cycle.

From these data sets "list and total waiting times" and ( 40 ) Record of previous wake-up events, a "performance indicator in% per cycle" of the previous wake-up events is determined in a subsequent process.

This "performance indicator in% per cycle" of the previous wake-up events, together with (80) planned planned wake-up events, as well as the total process duration set, form the basic data for the planning generator (81) ,

In the planning generator (81) a forecast is then generated for the probability of reaching the pending alarm events within the overall process duration.

The central question / decision of the process or operating principle for setting and adjusting the process duration is "( 80 ) Do all cycles fit in the total process time window? ”.

If all previous wake-up events of this process, as well as all the remaining planned, in all likelihood fit into the overall process duration (in other words, based on the performance indicator for previous wake-up events, there is a probability of over 95.4% that a wake-up signal with the corresponding parameters in the given time window, is possible) then the question "(80) Do all cycles fit in the time window total process time?" with "Yes" and the total process time is set and is displayed accordingly (30) "End of overall process" transmitted.

If the forecast value is below 95.4%, 2 options are provided by the planning generator (81) generated. Option a): Number of cycles to be reduced in order to achieve a forecast value of the process reliability of 95.4% or more, option b): Time proposal ("Probably necessary ...") Extension of the total process duration based on the 95.4% probability of Process reliability for the current number of cycles

By input (10) , the user can now decide whether he / she wants to reduce the number of cycles, which leads to a corresponding reduction in counter A, or whether he / she adds a new (usually longer) or the proposed time extension ( "Probably necessary ...") would like to extend (based on the 95.4% probability of process reliability) the total process duration.

The so-called procedure is designed in such a way that a user can, of course, always at can enter a shorter total process time. This leads to a faster or immediate end of the process if the total process duration then corresponds to a remaining runtime of zero.

In this case, the user receives the message: “Total process time is too short or ended! Start a new process or extend the process. ”This stops the entire process and must be started with the“ start button ”(see drawing 5 ) can be started again, or by entering (10) the total process time (drawing 6 ) can be extended.

Alternatively, reducing the number of cycles (by reducing counter A) leads to a faster or immediate end of the process as soon as "( 21 ) Outstanding cycles = 0? ”Is answered with“ Yes ”(see drawing 5 ).

The white filled flowchart elements in the drawing 5 , are primarily a reminder and explanation of the connections to drawing 6 thought. They show that the process (21) Counter priming based on drawing 5 is fully functional (without the white flowchart elements), but with the "process of setting and adjusting the process duration" (drawing 6 ), especially with the planning unit (80) , is toothed when this is activated.

In conclusion to the comprehensive description of the methods and the operating principle, it should be clarified that the described methods and operating principles enable a large number of different operating modes for wake-up signals: 1. Conventional (temporal) one-time wake-up using (connected application) conventional time-wake-up unit (613) see diagram 7 , and counter A set as 1 (see drawing 5 ). (without entering the minimum distance value)

2. Multiple conventional (temporal) waking (like drawing 7 ), only counter A set according to the desired number of wake-up repetitions (see drawing 5 ). (without entering the minimum distance value)

3. One-off (time) wake-up with specification which accompanying circumstances should be given at the same time (according to the recording sensors (50) respectively. (51) - ( 599 ) and the associated applications (60) respectively. (61) - ( 699 ), and counter A set as 1 (see drawing 5 ). (without entering the minimum distance value)

4. Multiple (temporal) wake-up calls stipulating which accompanying circumstances should be present at the same time (according to the recording sensors (50) respectively. (51) - (599) and related applications (60) respectively. (61) - ( 699 ), only counter A set according to the desired number of wake-up repetitions (see drawing 5 ). (without entering the minimum distance value)

5. Purely "cycle-driven" wake-up (without time focus) by only using the user specifications according to the recording sensors (50) respectively. (51) - ( 599 ) and the associated applications (60) respectively. (61) - (699) lead to a wake-up signal (see drawing 5 ). (without entering the minimum distance value)

6. In the "time-limited" mode, such as "cycle-driven" waking (above), but with the integration of the process or operating principle for setting and adjusting the process duration (see drawing 6 ). (without entering the minimum distance value)

7. Purely "cycle-driven" wake-up (without time focus) by only using the user specifications according to the recording sensors (50) respectively. (51) - ( 599 ) and the associated applications (60) respectively. (61) - (699) lead to a wake-up signal (see drawing 5 ). (with input of minimum distance value)

8. In "time-limited" mode, such as "cycle-driven" wake-up (above), but with integration of the process for setting and adjusting the process duration (see drawing 6 ). (with input of minimum distance value)

9.Many other operating modes for wake-up signals that weight the priorities of the number of cycles, total process duration, input of minimum distance values and target values etc. differently, as well as specifications for individual cycle targets (in other words, cycle number 6 has different target values than cycle number 7 etc. .) are possible and can be combined. For easier understanding and in the sense of clarity, all possible combinations are not formulated here.

The features disclosed in the descriptions, the claims and the drawings can be of importance both individually and in any combination with one another for realizing the invention.
