Kelsey A. Rodriguez
The Time and Frequency Bulletin provides information on performance of time scales and a variety of broadcasts (and related information) to users of the NIST services.

Redefining the kilogram and other SI units

February 10, 2021
Author(s)
Stephan Schlamminger
Units are at the heart of science and technology. Most measurements require units to express their result. The International System of Units (SI) provides a widely used coherent framework of units. While the present SI is fit for purpose for all

Blockchain Networks: Token Design and Management Overview

February 9, 2021
Author(s)
Loic D. Lesavre, Priam C. Varin, Dylan J. Yaga
Blockchain technology has enabled a new software paradigm for managing digital ownership in partial- or zero-trust environments. It uses tokens to conduct transactions, exchange verifiable data, and achieve coordination across organizations and on the web
