Topics dealing with systems that process data

Data acquisition - the process of sampling signals that measure real world physical conditions and converting those samples into digital numeric values that can be used by a computer
Data compression- the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original data would use
Data conversion - the conversion of data from one format to another
Data encryption - the translation of data into a code that allows secure storage or transmission
Data engineering - the process of engineering the storage, transmission and processing of data to minimize cost or maximize performance
Data handling - the process of ensuring that data is stored or disposed of in a secure manner after use
Data processing - any computer process that summarizes, analyzes or converts data into usable information
Data storage systems - the retention of data in forms not immediately accessible by a CPU, such as hard drives and other devices slower but more permanent than RAM
