Secure Two-Way Transfer of Measurement Data

We introduce a measurement system architecture, which has three main qualities: secure two-way transfer of measurement data, quick adaptability to different kinds of measurement tasks and strong data presentation capabilities through XML techniques. In the architecture, we take advantage of welltried technologies, like a commonly used visual programming language that offers predefined and adaptive measuring tools for managing measurement devices and tasks. XML is a widely adopted standard for a flexible text format and data exchange. It brings along a vast selection of ready made facilities for processing and transforming the content into any format desired. We also propose a secure environment into the architecture, which can be accessed on demand using a wide range of terminal devices.
