Author(s)
Jennifer R. Verkouteren, John G. Gillen, R M. Verkouteren, Robert A. Fletcher, E S. Etz, George A. Klouda, Alim A. Fatah, Philip J. Mattson
The purpose of this document is to establish minimum performance requirements and an associated test method for Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) based trace explosives detectors for use by the first responder community. Information concerning the theory and

Inadequate Interoperability: A Closer Look at the Costs

September 1, 2005
Author(s)
Robert E. Chapman
The 2004 NIST interoperability cost study estimated an annual cost burden of $15.8 billion due to inadequate interoperability in the capital facilities segment of the U.S. construction industry. The $15.8 billion estimate is the sum of individual annual

Knowledge Integration for Bio-Threat Response

September 1, 2005
Author(s)
K Verspoor, O Bodenreider, P Karp, H Kelly, S Loranger, M Musen, Ram D. Sriram, C Wroe, C Joslyn, J Ambrosiano
Bio-threats require rapid analysis and response to prevent widespread consequences to the population. The inability to easily link and exploit biological knowledge for both human and automated analysis is a major limitation on the speed of complex

William E. Luecke, Joseph D. McColskey, Christopher N. McCowan, Stephen W. Banovic, Richard J. Fields, Timothy J. Foecke, Thomas A. Siewert, Frank W. Gayle
This report provides five types of mechanical properties for steels from the World Trade Center (WTC): elastic, room-temperature tensile, room-temperature high strain rate, impact, and elevated-temperature tensile. Specimens of 29 different steels

Messaging in the Process Specification Language

September 1, 2005
Author(s)
Conrad Bock, Michael Gruninger
This paper characterizes messages by the constraints they place on participation of entities in processes. Constraints are expressed in two ways: informally as usage patterns of the Process Specification Language, and formally as extensions to it. The
