'''Industrial data processing''' is a branch of applied [[computer science]] that covers the area of design and programming of computerized systems which are not computers as such — often referred to as [[embedded system]]s ([[programmable logic controller|PLC]]s, [[Automation|automated systems]], [[intelligent instrument]]s, etc.). The products concerned contain at least one [[microprocessor]] or [[microcontroller]], as well as couplers (for [[I/O]]).
 
Another current definition of industrial data processing is that it concerns those [[computer program]]s whose variables in some way represent [[Physics|physical]] quantities; for example the [[temperature]] and [[pressure]] of a tank, the position of a [[robot]] arm, etc.
