1. A system for identifying events, the system comprising:

  • a memory configured to store a compressed event table including a second number of distinct events of a vehicle and, for each event, a set of state parameters representing known outputs of a plurality of modules of the vehicle, the compressed event table having been generated from an uncompressed event table including a first, greater number of distinct events than the compressed event table, the uncompressed event table also including, for each event of the uncompressed event table, a unique set of state parameters, a same first number of distinct events being identifiable from both the compressed and uncompressed event tables; and

    a processor configured to operate a fast state recognition (FSR) application, wherein the FSR application configured to receive a plurality of inputs comprising data output onto a plurality of buses from modules of the vehicle during operation of the vehicle, and at least a portion of the compressed event table or a representation thereof, and in response to receiving the plurality of inputs, identify an event from the compressed event table based upon a comparison between the plurality of inputs and the state parameters of the events of the compressed event table, event being identified in accordance with a state recognition technique,wherein the memory and processor are embodied in a monitoring controller associated with the vehicle, the monitoring controller being configured to package event data including the identified event for at least one module, and thereafter transmit the packaged event data external to the vehicle at least partially over a wireless communication link, the monitoring controller being configured to transmit the packaged event data via a data unit of the vehicle.
