1. A method for computerized optimization of a combined data acquisition and calculation procedure, comprising the steps of:

  • acquiring measurement data in a data acquisition process;

    operating on said measurement data by performing an electronic calculation based on acquired measurement data in a calculation process, while acquiring further measurement data in said data acquisition process in parallel with said calculation process;

    electronically deconstructing said calculation process into a plurality of calculation packets;

    for each of said calculation packets, electronically defining a rule set that designates logical dependencies among all of said calculation packets, said logical dependencies comprising at least one of requirements that must be fulfilled before a calculation packet can be executed, and an amount of said measurement data that must be acquired before a calculation packet can be executed;

    electronically restructuring said calculation process into a workflow structure based on said calculation packets and said rule sets; and

    controlling said calculation process using the workflow structure of said calculation process and automatically executing the respective calculation packets at respective earliest points in time permitted by the rule set defined therefore.
