Best Practices for Quantification of Uncertainty and Sampling Quality in Molecular Simulations

October 27, 2018
Author(s)
Alan Grossfield, Paul Patrone, Daniel R. Roe, Andrew J. Schultz, Daniel Siderius, Daniel M. Zuckerman
The quantitative assessment of uncertainty and sampling quality is essential in molecular simulation. Many systems of interest are highly complex, often at the edge of current computational capabilities. Modelers must therefore analyze and communicate

Energy Renormalization to Coarse-Graining of the Dynamics of a Model Glass-Forming Liquid

February 5, 2018
Author(s)
Wenjie Xia, Jake Song, Nitin Hansoge, Frederick R. Phelan Jr., Sinan Keten, Jack F. Douglas
Soft condensed matters characteristically exhibit a strong temperature dependence of relaxation properties due to glass formation, but currently no effective temperature transferable coarse- graining method exists that allows for the prediction of their

Spintronics

September 20, 2016
Author(s)
Hideo Ohno, Mark D. Stiles, Bernard Dieny
Scope: This special issue covers recent developments in spintronics, where the spin degree of freedom of electrons is used to harness otherwise inaccessible capabilities. We have witnessed a wide range of progress, particularly in the past 10 years

Electronic Authentication Guideline

August 29, 2013
Author(s)
William E. Burr, Donna F. Dodson, Elaine M. Newton, Ray Perlner, William Polk, Sarbari Gupta, Emad A. Nabbus
This recommendation provides technical guidelines for Federal agencies implementing electronic authentication and is not intended to constrain the development or use of standards outside of this purpose. The recommendation covers remote authentication of

Cyber Security Metrics and Measures

March 2, 2009
Author(s)
Paul E. Black, Karen A. Scarfone, Murugiah P. Souppaya
Metrics are tools to facilitate decision making and improve performance and accountability. Measures are quantifiable, observable, and objective data supporting metrics. Operators can use metrics to apply corrective actions and improve performance

Automated Combinatorial Test Methods: Beyond Pairwise Testing

June 2, 2008
Author(s)
David R. Kuhn, Raghu N. Kacker, Yu Lei
Pairwise testing has become a popular approach to software quality assurance because it often provides effective error detection at low cost. However, pairwise (2-way) coverage is not sufficient for assurance of mission-critical software. Combinatorial

First-Principles Calculation of the Air-Water Second Virial Coefficient

April 2, 2007
Author(s)
Allan H. Harvey, Peter H. Huang
Recent theoretical work has produced quantitatively accurate potential-energy surfaces for water with common gases. These pair potentials have been used to calculate cross second virial coefficients with an accuracy superior to that obtained by most

High Temperature Superconductor Wires and Tapes

November 26, 2006
Author(s)
M. P. Paranthaman, V Selvamanickam, K Matsumoto, Luigia Gianna, Wei-xian Zhang, P Goyal, Winnie Wong-Ng
High Temperature Superconductor Wires and Tapes was one of the MS&T2006 symposia (October 15-19, 2006; Duke Energy Center, Cincinnati, Ohio) that covered recent advances in the area of high temperature superconductor (HTS) wires and tapes. The symposium

Pseudo-Exhaustive Testing for Software

April 28, 2006
Author(s)
David R. Kuhn, Vadim Okun
Pseudo-exhaustive testing uses the empirical observation that, for broad classes of software, a fault is likely triggered by only a few variables interacting. The method takes advantage of two relatively recent advances in software engineering: algorithms

Embedded Decoupling Capacitance Materials Characterization

December 1, 2000
Author(s)
Jan Obrzut
The dielectric constant of the embedded capacitance materials was measured in the frequency range from 100 Hz to 5 GHz. The testing included evaluation of the capacitance density, leakage current, and the effect of HAST on the capacitance. A test specimen

Critical Issues in the Characterization of Polymers for Medical Applications

June 1, 2000
Author(s)
Walter G. McDonough, Eric J. Amis, J Kohn
On June 14, 2000, the New Jersey Center for Biomaterials and the Polymers Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) co-sponsored a one-day workshop on Critical Issues in the Characterization of Polymers for Medical Applications

IEEE Trans on Instrumentation - Forward

April 1, 1999
Author(s)
Norman B. Belecki
The National Institute of Standards and Technology hosted the 1998 Conference on Precision Electromagnetic Measurements (CPEM'98) in Washington, D.C. during the week of July 6-10, 1998. Attendance included 506 metrologists, physicists, and engineers from
