This Recommendation specifies the set of elliptic curves recommended for U.S. Government use. In addition to the previously recommended Weierstrass curves defined over prime fields and binary fields, this Recommendation includes two newly specified Edwards
This Guide addresses compliance requirements for personal protective Equipment (PPE) used in the workplace, except for PPE used in a nuclear or medical setting. Several U.S. federal agencies administer regulations associated with Personal Protective

We present a wide-ranging correlation expressed in terms of temperature and density for the viscosity of ethanol based on critically evaluated experimental data. The correlation is designed to be used with an existing equation of state from the triple
Annually since 1997, the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) provides a report to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) summarizing federal agency use of government unique standards (GUS) used in lieu of voluntary consensus standards (VCS) during the
Digital Twin has become an important technology for advanced manufacturing. However, to ensure that digital twins provide valuable decision support, the results generated by the digital twins must be trustworthy for real manufacturing systems. Model

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted a wide range of public health system challenges for infectious disease surveillance. The discovery that the SARS-CoV-2 virus was shed in feces and can be characterized using PCR-based testing of sewage samples offers new
Future Networks, Beyond 5G and 6G, will continue to expand in scale, complexity and interconnectivity, and will be highly shaped by distributed systems that serve various use cases that go beyond current Use Cases like mMTC (massive Machine Type
This paper describes the efforts of the NIST Cloud Computing Program in the development of understanding the federated cloud concept through the creation of a reference architecture, cooperation with the IEEE and resulting in the publication IEEE 2302-2021
This paper discusses the considerations that were important in 1972, when the current leap second system was adopted, to maintain UTC, the international reference time scale, closely connected to UT1 – a time scale based on the rotation of the Earth

An empirical equation of state in terms of the Helmholtz energy is presented for n-octane. It is valid from the triple point temperature Ttp = 216.37 K to Tmax = 650 K with a maximum pressure of pmax = 1000 MPa and allows for the calculation of all
Standards and conformity assessment are important to strengthening the science and quality of forensic science. Standards provide a foundation for consistency between processes related to testing, accreditation, management systems, and personnel
There remains a need for rheological characterization of metal powder used for powder-spreading-based additive manufacturing (AM). Novel powder rheometers introduced to the commercial market for this purpose must be rigorously evaluated for repeatability
