Abstract

This paper describes research and development work conducted at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on an Internet-based Distributed Measurement and Control (DMC) system. The work has resulted in applications that highlight state-of-the-art hardware and software techniques used to design, implement, and deploy next-generation Internet-based DMC systems. A framework, that the NIST work is based on, targets three important areas of standardization including transducer interfaces, open network communications, and distributed application development. An Internet-based DMC application using the framework and two other research activities rooted on the core of the Internet-based DMC research at NIST are described.
