instrumentation error
1Instrumentation (disambiguation) — Instrumentation may mean:*Instrumentation, the art and science of measurement and control **Virtual instrumentation **Instrumentation amplifier, an integrated circuit sometimes used in measurement instruments. *Instrumentation (music)… …
2Systematic error — Systematic errors are biases in measurement which lead to the situation where the mean of many separate measurements differs significantly from the actual value of the measured attribute. All measurements are prone to systematic errors, often of… …
3Approximation error — The approximation error in some data is the discrepancy between an exact value and some approximation to it. An approximation error can occur because the measurement of the data is not precise due to the instruments. (e.g., the accurate reading… …
4Pilot error — 1994 Fairchild Air Force Base B 52 crash, caused by flying the aircraft beyond its operational limits. This history is now used in military and civilian aviation environments as a case study in teaching crew resource management Pilot error… …
5Random error — Random errors are errors in measurement that lead to measurable values being inconsistent when repeated measures of a constant attribute or quantity are taken. The word random indicates that they are inherently unpredictable, and have null… …
6OPERA neutrino anomaly — The OPERA neutrino anomaly is the detection of apparently faster than light neutrinos by the OPERA experiment in September 2011. The detection is anomalous because speeds exceeding that of light in a vacuum are generally thought to violate… …
7analysis — /euh nal euh sis/, n., pl. analyses / seez /. 1. the separating of any material or abstract entity into its constituent elements (opposed to synthesis). 2. this process as a method of studying the nature of something or of determining its… …
8Apollo Guidance Computer — and DSKY Invented by MIT Instrumentation Laboratory Manufacturer Raytheon Introduced August 1966 …
9Profiling (computer programming) — In software engineering, profiling ( program profiling , software profiling ) is a form of dynamic program analysis that measures, for example, the usage of memory, the usage of particular instructions, or frequency and duration of function calls …
10MISTRAM — Missile Trajectory Measurement System. MISTRAM (MISsile TRAjectory Measurement) was a high resolution tracking system used by the United States Air Force (and later NASA) to provide highly detailed trajectory analysis of rocket launches. A… …
