## Detailed Description

Abstract class for discrete-time sources of data.

The class abstracts operations of: (i) data aquisition, (ii) data-preprocessing, (iii) scaling of data, and (iv) data resampling from the task of estimation and control. Moreover, for controlled systems, it is able to receive the desired control action and perform it in the next step. (Or as soon as possible).

The documentation for this class was generated from the following file:
