Approaches to software testing based on methods from the field of design of experiments have been advocated as a means of providing high coverage at relatively
We use simulations to study the dependence of the phase error in the nose-to-nose oscilloscope calibration on the oscilloscope's sampling circuitry. We
We reveal the techniques behind a successful implementation of the Multiline TRL calibration for vector network analyzers (VNAs). For the first time, this paper

As currently implemented, single photon sources cannot be made to produce single photons with high probability, while simultaneously suppressing the probability
The finite-element method is used to carry out parametric analyses on the thermal response of simulated defects in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) laminates
This paper examines the effectiveness of nonlinear static procedures for seismic response analysis of buildings. Nonlinear static procedures are recommended in

The use of chemically amplified photoresists for the fabrication of sub-100 nm features will require spatial control with nanometer level resolution. To reach
A NIST-Developed pryoelectric radiometer was characterized and calibrated to extend the NIST high accuracy spectral responsively scale from the visible range to
Business-to-consumer and business-to-business applications based on the Extensible Markup Language (XML) tend to lack a rigorous description of product data

Using Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), we present the first quantitative measurements of the 3-dimensional conformation of macromolecules in thin polymer
At the subject workshop, industry identified numerous high priority needs that NIST assistance was asked for. NIST currently has related activity for some of
The primary reason for building manufacturing simulations is to provide support tools that aid the manufacturing deci-sion-making process. Simulations are

Abstract - We report on the results of a collaborative effort between the National Institute of Standards and Technology and Sandia National Laboratories to
Recent studies have demonstrated that combustion models can be as sensitive to the binary diffusion coefficients of the fuel species as to the kinetics of major
Experimental measurements and simulations are used to provide an overview of key issues with the electrical characterization of metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS)
