Internet-Based Surface Metrology Algorithm Testing System

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Son H. Bui, Thomas B. Renegar, Theodore V. Vorburger, Jayaraman Raja, Mark C. Malburg
This paper presents the development of an Internet-based surface metrology algorithm testing system. The system includes peer-reviewed surface analysis tools and a surface texture specimen database for parameter evaluation and algorithm verification. The

Limits to the Effectiveness of Metal-Containing Fire Suppressants

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Gregory T. Linteris
This report reviews the literature on metal inhibition of flames and identifies metal species with potential as fire suppressant additives. To provide a basis for discussion, the detailed mechanism of inhibition of iron is reviewed, and the reasons for its

Link Scoped IPv6 Multicast

Author(s)
M K. Shin
We have implemented a quantum key distribution (QKD) system with polarization encoding at 850 nm over 1 km of optical fiber. The high-speed management of the bit-stream, generation of random numbers and processing of the sifting algorithm are all handled

Matrix Decompositions and Quantum Circuit Design

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Stephen Bullock
The n-qubit concurrence canonical decomposition (CCD) is a generalization of the two-qubit canonical decomposition SU(4)=[SU(2) (x) SU(2)] ? [SU(2) (x) SU(2)], where ? is the commutative group which phases the maximally entangled Bell basis. A prequel

MEMS Sensors for HVAC&R: Small, Fast, Cheap.

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
David A. Yashar, Piotr A. Domanski
Microelectronic mechanical systems (MEMS) have revolutionized the market for sensors by providing small, fast-responding measurement devices at lowcost. They have been widely accepted in several commonproducts. As an example, today’s automobile uses

Modeling Quantum Information Systems

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Paul E. Black, Andrew W. Lane
A simulator for quantum information systems cannot be both general, that is, easily used for every possible system, and efficient. Therefore, some systems will have aspects which can only be simulated by cunning modeling. On the other hand, a simulation

NIST Special Database #28

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Reference Data Set V. National software reference library
The goal of this document is to help W3C editors write better specifications, by making a specification easier to interpret without ambiguity and clearer as to what is required in order to conform. It focuses on how to define and specify conformance. It
