NIST Handbook 150-872 presents the technical requirements and guidance for the accreditation of laboratories under the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) Federal Warfare System(s) (FWS) program. It is intended for information and

Resource optimization of quantum-enabled channels using novel modulation schemes

July 21, 2021
Author(s)
Jabir Marakkarakath Vadakkepurayil, FNU Nur Fajar Rizqi Annafianto, Ivan Burenkov, Abdella Battou, Sergey Polyakov
We introduce new practical modulation schemes inspired by the quantum measurement. We experimentally show that our quantum-enabled communication system optimizes the combined resource efficiency (CRE) beyond the classical, shot-noise-limited CRE.

Binary Diffusion Coefficients for Fluorocarbons in Nitrogen

July 20, 2021
Author(s)
William Sean McGivern, Jeffrey A. Manion
Binary gas-phase diffusion coefficients, of interest in physical models of atmospheric and combustion chemistry, have been measured in N2 for the homologous series of refrigerant-related (fluoro)methanes CH4, CH3F, CH2F2, and CHF3. Values have been

Challenges of Accuracy in Germline Clinical Sequencing Data

July 20, 2021
Author(s)
Justin Zook, Ryan Poplin, Mark DePristo
Physicians are increasingly using clinical sequencing tests to establish diagnoses of patients who might have genetic disorders, which means that accuracy of sequencing and interpretation are important elements in ensuring the benefits of genetic testing

Managing the Security of Information Exchanges

July 20, 2021
Author(s)
Kelley L. Dempsey, Victoria Yan Pillitteri, Andrew Regenscheid
An organization often has mission and business-based needs to exchange (share) information with one or more other internal or external organizations via various information exchange channels. However, it is recognized that the information being exchanged

Status Report on the Second Round of the NIST Lightweight Cryptography Standardization Process

July 20, 2021
Author(s)
Meltem Sonmez Turan, Kerry McKay, Donghoon Chang, Cagdas Calik, Lawrence E. Bassham, Jinkeon Kang, John M. Kelsey
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is in the process of selecting one or more authenticated encryption and hashing schemes suitable for constrained environments through a public, competition-like process. In February 2019, 57
