2014 NIST Assessment of Phasor Measurement Unit Performance

February 9, 2016
Author(s)
Allen R. Goldstein
The first synchrophasor standard was published in 1995. The standard was revised in 2001, 2005, 2011, and 2014 with evolving performance requirements. In 2012 NIST began assessing the performance of PMUs, both commercially available and pre-production

Election Results Common Data Format Specification

February 9, 2016
Author(s)
John P. Wack, Kim Brace, Samuel Dana, Herb Deutsch, John Dziurlaj, Ian Piper, Don Rehill, Richard M. Rivello, Sarah Whitt
This publication describes an election results common data format specification for pre-election setup information and post-election results reporting. It contains a UML model of the election data and an XML format derived from the UML model. It also

Absorption Cross Section Measurements of a Human Body in a Reverberation Chamber

February 8, 2016
Author(s)
Damir Senic, Antonio Sarolic, Zbigniew M. Joskiewicz, Christopher L. Holloway
We provide the results of human body absorption cross section (ACS) measurements. The setup was based on the reverberation chamber as a well-known measurement environment capable of performing ACS measurements. The approach was supported by reference

Super Stiff and Highly Transparent Multilayer Thin Films Prepared through Hydrogen-Bonding Layer- by-Layer Assembly of Graphene and Polymer

February 8, 2016
Author(s)
Fangming Xiang, Dorsa Parviz, Tara M. Givens, Ping Tzeng, Eric Davis, Christopher Stafford, Micah J. Green, Jaime C. Grunlan
Since its discovery in 2004, graphene has been intensely studied due to its high elastic modulus, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and gas impermeability. Although it is possible to use small quantities of graphene sheets for fundamental

Precision and Robustness of 2D-NMR for Structure and Assessment of Filgrastim Biosimilars

February 5, 2016
Author(s)
Houman Ghasriani, Derek Hodgson, Robert G. Brinson, Ian McEwen, Lucinda F. Buhse, Steven Kozlowski, John Marino, Yves Aubin, David Keire
The higher order structure of biotherapeutics is a critical quality attribute (CQA) that can be evaluated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at atomic resolution. NMR spectral "fingerprinting" can directly establish drug substance structural

A Regret Matching Strategy Framework for Inter-BAN Interference Mitigation

February 4, 2016
Author(s)
Vladimir Marbukh, Kamran Sayrafian, Martina Barbi, Mehdi Alasti
A Body Area Network (BAN) is a radio standard for wireless connectivity of wearable and implantable sensors located inside or in close proximity to the human body. Medical and some other applications impose stringent constraints on battery powered BAN

Bottom Up Approaches to Improved Polyolefin Measurements

February 4, 2016
Author(s)
Sara Orski, Thomas W. Rosch, Anthony Kotula, Richard J. Sheridan, Frederick R. Phelan Jr., Kalman Migler, Chad R. Snyder, Luis F. Vargas Lara, Jack F. Douglas, Kathryn L. Beers
As a class of materials, polyolefins remain the largest production volume polymer in the world, as well as a highly desirable medium from which to engineer high performance and advanced properties for new applications. After decades of research, there are

On the Differential Security of the HFEv - Signature Primitive

February 4, 2016
Author(s)
Ryann Cartor, Ryan Gipson, Daniel Smith-Tone, Jeremy Vates
Multivariate Public Key Cryptography (MPKC) is one of the most attractive post-quantum options for digital signatures in a wide array of applications. The history of multivariate signature schemes is tumultuous, however, and solid security arguments are

Security Analysis and Key Modification for ZHFE

February 4, 2016
Author(s)
Ray A. Perlner, Daniel C. Smith-Tone
ZHFE, designed by Porras et al., is one of the few promising candidates for a multivariate public-key encryption algorithm. In this article we extend and expound upon the existing security analysis on this scheme. We prove security against differential

Improved thermoelectric performance of (Fe,Co)Sb3-type skutterudites from first-principles

February 3, 2016
Author(s)
Winnie K. Wong-Ng, Izaak Williamson, Logan J. Her, Xianli Su, Yonggao Yan, Lan Li
Skutterudite materials have been considered as promising thermoelectric candidates due to intrinsically good electrical conductivity and tailorable thermal conductivity. Options for improving thermal-to-electrical conversion efficiency include identifying

Learning Internet of Things Security "Hands-on"

February 3, 2016
Author(s)
Constantinos Kolias, Angelos Stavrou, Jeff Voas, Irena Bojanova, D. Richard Kuhn
Our research began from asking whether there is a science behind the Internet of Things (IoT). We started from zero knowledge and no bias. The results of that work determined that indeed there is a science, but it is a science of numerous actors, that when

Steady State Vapor Bubble in Pool Boiling

February 3, 2016
Author(s)
An Zou, Ashish Chanana, Amit Agrawal, Peter C. Wayner, Jr., Shalabh C. Maroo
Boiling, a dynamic and multiscale process, has been studied for over five decades; however, a comprehensive understanding of the process is still lacking. The bubble ebullition cycle, which involves nucleation, growth and departure, happens over a very

Technical Report of Range-BASF Program

February 2, 2016
Author(s)
Leonid A. Bendersky, Kwo-hsiung Young, Simon K. Ng
The goal of the RANGE-BASF Program is to provide an alternative solution for the energy storage media that powers electric vehicles other than the existing Li-ion battery. With the use of a rare-earth free metal hydride as the active negative electrode

Using Combinatorial Testing to Build Navigation Graphs for Dynamic Web Applications

February 2, 2016
Author(s)
Wenhua Wang, Sreedevi Sampath, Yu Lei, Raghu N. Kacker, D. Richard Kuhn, James F. Lawrence
Modelling a software system is often a challenging prerequisite to automatic test case generation. Modelling the navigation structure of a dynamic web application is particularly challenging because of the presence of a large number of pages that are
