We investigate the effect of phase inversion on the domain morphology and rheological properties of phase-separated polybutadiene/polyisoprene blends using...
At the NIST Cold Neutron Research Facility, a multiple run neutron lifetime experiment is underway. Each run of the two-stage experiment consists of a neutron...
Kevin Coakley and Mark Levenson were invited to solicit papers on Quantitative Imaging for a special issue of the International Journal of Imaging Systems and...
The study of interactive information retrieval (IR) has been a small but constant part of Text Retrieval Conferences (TREC 1-8) from the beginning. The main...
In most of the current authorization frameworks in application systems, the authorization for a user operation is determined using a static database like ACL...
Given the size of the web, the search engine industry has argued that engines should be evaluated by their ability to retrieve highlyrelevant pages rather than...
Pervasive Computing (a.k.a. Ubiquitous or Ambient Computing) is a new field of computer science generally considered to lie at the intersection of desktop...

In this paper we describe the role that mathematics plays in measurement science at NIST. We first survey the history behind NIST's current work in this area...
Objectives: This study determined the validity and practicality of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic techniques for measurement of conversion in dental resins...
Objectives: A consolidated silver (CS) material, composed of acid activated silver particles has been developed for direct filling applications. The hypothesis...
The 1 MHz dielectric properties of Ca 5Nb 2TiO 12 and Ca 5Ta 2TiO 12 compounds were reported recently. Both compounds have a common characteristic dependence of...
The discontinuouis plastic flow exhibited by numerous aluminum alloys presents significant challenges to the use of aluminum alloys in many automotive...
