[EDIT]
The question was a bit over-explained.
Cumulative
Consumption
Instantaneous
Average
What would you name this kind of units?
The listed options is used to specify how to calculate values in a table.
I.e.
Cumulative = 53 (sum of all)
Consumption = 8 (gap between two values)
Instantaneous = 20 (at asked time)
Average = 13,25 (sum 53/4 values)
The question is only for me to make a clear and understandable naming convention in the system.
I’d call them aggregates or reductions of the data. In all cases, you’re taking a bunch of data and summarizing it by computing one number. Other words that can be used are measure, statistic and digest.
