Improvements in fabrication and packaging of our 10 V Programmable Josephson Voltage Standard circuits have enabled the successful operation of these devices on...
Development of a data analytics application for manufacturing is best when tested with large sets of data. It is usually difficult for application developers to...
Manufacturing organizations are able to accumulate large amounts of plant floor production and environmental data due to advances in data collection...
The production of firebrands contributes to the spread of disastrous large outdoor fires. As structures are exposed to wind, stagnation planes are produced...
Prior to making a multiple attribute selection decision, a decision-maker may collect information to estimate the value of each attribute for each alternative...
Mulch is commonly found near buildings and is a useful surrogate to study various fuels that may be present near buildings. To this end, mulch beds were exposed...
Confidence intervals quantify the uncertainty in an average and o↵er a robust alternative to hypothesis testing. We measure the performance of standard and...

This paper describes a recently designed system that measures the time transmitted by network time protocol (NTP) servers located in North, Central, and South...
The wide application of GPS carrier-phase (CP) time transfer is limited by the problem of boundary discontinuity (BD). The discontinuity has two categories. One...
We discuss developments at NIST towards improving the passive microwave brightness temperature standard. By reducing uncertainty we can provide a better...
There is a need to back up critical timing infrastructure at the national level. This presentation describes a joint project employing commercial equipment to...
Nowadays, more and more dual-frequency, multichannel receivers are used in GPS time and frequency transfer applications. Instead of using the modeled ionosphere...
A previously developed simulator for noise-parameter measurements has been used in an extensive investigation and comparison of different measurement strategies...
Many advanced manufacturing processes employ scanning electron microscopes (SEM) for on-line critical measurements for process and quality control. This is the...
