We will figure that out since I am starting to look at the data transfer part.</p>

On page 3: "data transfer via UDP"<br>
<br>
That worries me. UDP is by definition "unreliable", i.e. dropped packets<br>
are not detected. Even if you allow packet loss, you wouldn't be able to<br>
determine dead time, for example. Is there any sort of handshake for<br>
data transfers, or do the front ends just send and forget?<br>
<br>
Just some thoughts.<br>
