Computer systems and methods for governing a network of data platforms
First Claim
1. In a system comprising a plurality of platforms that are communicatively coupled via a communication network, a computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, at a first platform from a second platform that is communicatively coupled to the first platform via the communication network, criteria that governs whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with one or more other platforms in the system, wherein the criteria is based on the reliability of asset-related data stored at a platform, wherein the first and second platforms are each configured to receive, process, and store respective asset-related data, and wherein the first and second platforms are each associated with a different respective organization;
the first platform assessing the reliability of asset-related data stored at the first platform by considering at least one of (a) how successful the first platform was in mapping given asset-related data stored at the first platform to a data model or (b) which data fields were present in the given asset-related data after data mapping;
the first platform applying the received criteria to the assessed reliability of asset-related data stored at the first platform and thereby making a determination as to whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with the one or more other platforms; and
the first platform operating in accordance with the determination.

Abstract
In an environment where a plurality of data platforms are communicatively coupled via a communication network, one platform in the environment may govern whether other platforms in the environment are permitted to participate in the sharing of asset-related information. For example, a first platform may receive, from a second platform (e.g., a master or seed platform) that is communicatively coupled to the first platform via the communication network, criteria that governs whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with one or more other platforms in the network. In turn, the first platform may assess the reliability of the platform'"'"'s stored asset-related data and then apply the criteria to the assessed reliability to determine whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with the one or more other platforms and then operate in accordance with that determination.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that are executable to cause a first platform to:
-
receive, from a second platform that is communicatively coupled to the first platform via a communication network, criteria that governs whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with one or more other platforms that are communicatively coupled to the first platform via the communication network, wherein the criteria is based on the reliability of asset-related data stored at a platform, wherein the first and second platforms are each configured to receive, process, and store respective asset-related data, and wherein the first and second platforms are each associated with a different respective organization; assess the reliability of asset-related data stored at the first platform by considering at least one of (a) how successful the first platform was in mapping given asset-related data to a data model or (b) which data fields were present in the given asset-related data after data mapping; apply the received criteria to the assessed reliability of asset-related data stored at the first platform and thereby make a determination as to whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with the one or more other platforms; and operate in accordance with the determination. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20)

19. A first platform comprising:
-
a network interface configured to facilitate communication with one or more data sources and one or more other platforms via a communication network; at least one processor; a non-transitory computer-readable medium; and program instructions stored on the non-transitory computer-readable medium that are executable by the at least one processor to cause the first platform to; receive, from a second platform that is communicatively coupled to the first platform via the communication network, criteria that governs whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with one or more other platforms that are communicatively coupled to the first platform via the communication network, wherein the criteria is based on the reliability of asset-related data stored at a platform, wherein the first and second platforms are each configured to receive, process, and store respective asset-related data, and wherein the first and second platforms are each associated with a different respective organization; assess the reliability of asset-related data stored at the first platform by considering at least one of (a) how successful the first platform was in mapping given asset-related data to a data model or (b) which data fields were present in the given asset-related data after data mapping; apply the received criteria to the assessed reliability of asset-related data stored at the first platform and thereby make a determination as to whether the first platform is permitted to share asset-related data with the one or more other platforms; and operate in accordance with the determination.
