SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF ACCESSING RANDOM ACCESS CACHE FOR RESCANNING
First Claim
1. A data processing system comprising:
- a random access cache that receives data from a data capture device, wherein the data is stored as one or more data segments within the random access cache and in a manner that is randomly accessible;
a processor in communication with the random access cache, wherein the processor is configured to obtain the data from the random access cache, the processor having processor control settings that are used to process the data stored in the random access cache; and
an acquisition controller configured to analyze the data from the random access cache to determine when to use different processor control settings and wherein the processor randomly accesses the one or more data segments stored in the random access cache to process the one or more data segments with the different processor control settings.

Abstract
An efficient method and system to enhance digital acquisition devices for analog data is presented. The enhancements offered by the method and system are available to the user in local as well as in remote deployments yielding efficiency gains for a large variety of business processes. The quality enhancements of the acquired digital data are achieved efficiently by employing virtual reacquisition. The method of virtual reacquisition renders unnecessary the physical reacquisition of the analog data in case the digital data obtained by the acquisition device are of insufficient quality. The method and system allows multiple users to access the same acquisition device for analog data. In some embodiments, one or more users can virtually reacquire data provided by multiple analog or digital sources. The acquired raw data can be processed by each user according to his personal preferences and/or requirements. The preferred processing settings and attributes are determined interactively in real time as well as non real time, automatically and a combination thereof.
