  2. Data acquisition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_acquisition

    Data acquisition is the process of sampling signals that measure real-world physical conditions and converting the resulting samples into digital numeric values that can be manipulated by a computer. Data acquisition systems, abbreviated by the acronyms DAS, DAQ, or DAU, typically convert analog waveforms into digital values for processing.

  3. SCADA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCADA

    SCADA (an acronym for supervisory control and data acquisition) is a control system architecture comprising computers, networked data communications and graphical user interfaces for high-level supervision of machines and processes.

  4. Data collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_collection

    Data collection and validation consist of four steps when it involves taking a census and seven steps when it involves sampling. [3] A formal data collection process is necessary, as it ensures that the data gathered are both defined and accurate. This way, subsequent decisions based on arguments embodied in the findings are made using valid ...

  5. Clinical data acquisition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clinical_data_acquisition

    Acquisition or collection of clinical trial data can be achieved through various methods that may include, but are not limited to, any of the following: paper or electronic medical records, paper forms completed at a site, interactive voice response systems, local electronic data capture systems, or central web based systems.

  6. Data logger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_logger

    However, in a historical context, they are quite different. A data logger is a data acquisition system, but a data acquisition system is not necessarily a data logger. Data loggers typically have slower sample rates. A maximum sample rate of 1 Hz may be considered to be very fast for a data logger, yet very slow for a typical data acquisition ...

  7. Data analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_analysis

    Data analysis is the process of inspecting, cleansing, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, informing conclusions, and supporting decision-making. [1] Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under a variety of names, and is used in different business, science ...

  8. Digital forensics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_forensics

    Acquisition does not normally involve capturing an image of the computer's volatile memory (RAM) unless this is done as part of an incident response investigation. [28] Typically the task involves creating an exact sector level duplicate (or "forensic duplicate") of the media, often using a write blocking device to prevent modification of the ...

  9. Digital forensic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_forensic_process

    The process is predominantly used in computer and mobile forensic investigations and consists of three steps: acquisition, analysis and reporting. Digital media seized for investigation may become an "exhibit" in legal terminology if it is determined to be 'reliable'.
