Abstract
Systems, methods, and stored coded instruction sets for reducing the amount of data captured, i.e., retained, by a computerized system, such as an aircraft flight control or monitoring system. Such systems can, for example, be used in monitoring and/or controlling the operation of one or more aircraft engines, flight controls, or other aircraft systems, in order to optimize storage required for collected data, and/or to reduce or otherwise control the time required to off-load captured data to another computer system, such as a land-based analysis system. The amount of data collected, e.g., captured or retained in memory, may be reduced by discarding data points that are within a specified tolerance of, for example, a previously observed or expected value in a manner which assists with preserving the accuracy and precision of the original measured data.
