Abstract
A system and method for obtaining data is provided. The method includes receiving a first plurality of data sample values based on a first signal generated by a first sensor from a first predetermined time to a second predetermined time. The method further includes receiving a second plurality of data sample values based on a second signal generated by a second sensor from a third predetermined time to a fourth predetermined time. Finally, the method includes storing both the first plurality of data sample values and the second plurality of data sample values in a first memory when a time difference between the first predetermined time and the third predetermined time is less than a predetermined time threshold value.
Claims20
A method for obtaining data in a computer system, comprising:
- receiving a first plurality of data sample values based on a first signal generated by a first sensor from a first predetermined time to a second predetermined time;
- receiving a second plurality of data sample values based on a second signal generated by a second sensor from a third predetermined time to a fourth predetermined time;
- and,
- storing both the first plurality of data sample values and the second plurality of data sample values in a first memory when a time difference between the first predetermined time and the third predetermined time is less than a predetermined time threshold value.
A system for obtaining data in a computer system, comprising:
- first and second computers operably communicating with one another, the first computer configured to retrieve a first plurality of data sample values stored in the second computer, the first plurality of data sample values based on a first signal generated by a first sensor from a first predetermined time to a second predetermined time, the first computer further configured to retrieve a second plurality of data sample values stored in the second computer, the second plurality of data sample values based on a second signal generated by a second sensor from a third predetermined time to a fourth predetermined time, the first computer further configured to store both the first plurality of data sample values and the second plurality of data sample values in a first memory when a time difference between the first predetermined time and the third predetermined time is less than a predetermined time threshold value.
A system for obtaining data, comprising:
- a first computer means for storing a first plurality of data sample values based on a first signal generated by a first sensor from a first predetermined time to a second predetermined time and for storing a second plurality of data sample values based on a second signal generated by a second sensor from a third predetermined time to a fourth predetermined time;
- and,
- a second computer means operably communicating with the first computer means for storing both the first plurality of data sample values and the second plurality of data sample values in a first memory when a time difference between the first predetermined time and the third predetermined time is less than a predetermined time threshold value.
An article of manufacture, comprising:
- a computer storage medium having a computer program encoded therein for obtaining data in a computer system, the computer storage medium including:
- code for receiving a first plurality of data sample values based on a first signal generated by a first sensor from a first predetermined time to a second predetermined time;
- code for receiving a second plurality of data sample values based on a second signal generated by a second sensor from a third predetermined time to a fourth predetermined time;
- and,
- code for storing both the first plurality of data sample values and the second plurality of data sample values in a first memory when a time difference between the first predetermined time and the third predetermined time is less than a predetermined time threshold value.
