1. A method to transmit a response message from an electronic device with a deterministic latency, the method comprising:
receiving an incoming message from a participant device;
sending a forwarded message to one or more compute engines, the forwarded message depending on the incoming message, and the forwarded message including a time based value;
receiving a compute-response message from the one or more compute engines, the compute-response message including information derivable from the time based value; and
sending an outbound message to the participant device based on the compute-response message, the outbound message sent at a deterministic egress time that depends on both a deterministic latency value and the information derivable from the time based value as received in the compute-response message.
