NIST Industrial Control System Security Activities

Author(s)
Keith A. Stouffer
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has several ongoing efforts to address industrial control system security. This paper will present an...

3D Range Imaging for Urban Search and Rescue Robotics Research

Author(s)
Roger V. Bostelman, Tsai Hong Hong, Rajmohan Madhavan, Brian A. Weiss
Urban search and rescue (US&R) operations can be extremely dangerous for human rescuers during disaster response. Human task forces carrying necessary tools and...

A Robot Ontology for Urban Search and Rescue

Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Elena R. Messina
The goal of this Robot Ontology effort is to develop and begin to populate a neutral knowledge representation (the data structures) capturing relevant...

Towards an Approach for Knowledge-based Road Detection

Author(s)
Mike Foedisch, M Lochner, D Teumim
Our previous work on road detection suggests the usage of prior knowledge in order to improve performance. In this paper we will explain our motivation for a...

Validating Portability of Step-NC Tool Center Programming

Author(s)
Sid Venkatesh, David Odendahl, Xun W. Xu, John L. Michaloski, Frederick M. Proctor, Thomas Kramer
A joint effort between Boeing and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) was undertaken for validating and evaluating STEP AP238 (STEP-NC)...

Spectroscopy of atomic and molecular ions using quantum logic

Author(s)
Piet Schmidt, Till P. Rosenband, Jeroen Koelemeij, David Hume, Wayne M. Itano, James C. Bergquist, David J. Wineland
Recently developed techniques for quantum computation using trapped ions allow unprecedented coherent control of the internal and external states of single...

Entity Knowledge Model Supporting Intelligent Systems

Author(s)
Hui-Min Huang, James S. Albus, Elena R. Messina, Harry A. Scott, Maris Juberts
Intelligent systems operate in uncertain and complex environments. In order to achieve their goals, these systems require rich and updated knowledge about the...

Characterization of Inertance Tubes Using Resonance Effects

Author(s)
Michael A. Lewis, Peter E. Bradley, Ray Radebaugh, Zhihua Gan
Inertance tubes can be characterized by their inertance, compliance, and resistance. All three of these impedance components are present during normal...

Proposed Rapid Cooldown Technique for Pulse Tube Cryocoolers

Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh, Agnes O¿Gallagher, Michael A. Lewis, Peter E. Bradley
Some cryocooler applications, such as those for military operations dealing with high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets, motors, or generators, require...

Uncertainties of Spectral Responsivity Measurements

Author(s)
George P. Eppeldauer, G Sauter, James Gardner
Uncertainty estimates of detector spectral responsivity measurements are discussed. A model describes independent (uncorrelated) uncertainty components at a...

When to Fuse Two Biometrics?

Author(s)
Elham Tabassi, Patrick J. Grother, George W. Quinn
Biometric fusion, acquisition and combination of multiple pieces of evidence of identity, can achieve higher accuracy of biometric recognition than using a...
