Toward an Architectural Framework to Improve Accountability in the Use of Electronic Records

May 1, 2005

Author(s)

Gordon E. Lyon, Alan Mink, R E. Van dyck

Sensitive electronic record systems (ERSs) raise questions about their proper use. Insider-threat involves hidden, unknown and unanticipated activities that constitute unacceptable use of an ERS, even while operating within individual access privileges

Large Scale Evaluation of Multimodal Biometric Authentication Using State-of-the-Art Systems

March 1, 2005

Author(s)

Robert D. Snelick, U Uludag, Alan Mink, Michael D. Indovina, A Jain

We examine the performance of multimodal biometric authentication systems using state-of-the-art Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) fingerprint and face biometric systems on a population approaching 1,000 individuals. Majority of prior studies of multimodal

Multimodal Biometric Authentication Methods: A COTS Approach

December 1, 2003

Author(s)

Michael D. Indovina, Robert D. Snelick, Alan Mink

We examine the performance of multimodal biometric authentication systems using state-of-the-art Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) fingerprint and face biometrics on a population approaching 1000 individuals. Prior studies of multimodal biometrics have been

Multimodal Biometrics: Issues in Design and Testing

November 1, 2003

Author(s)

Robert D. Snelick, Michael D. Indovina, James H. Yen, Alan Mink

The results of experimental studies on multimodal biometric systems for small-scale populations have shown better performance compared to single-mode biometric systems. We examine if such techniques scale to larger populations, introduce a methodology to

High-Speed Quantum Communication Testbed

December 1, 2002

Author(s)

Carl J. Williams, Xiao Tang, M Hiekkero, J Rouzard, R Lu, A Goedecke, Alan L. Migdall, Alan Mink, Anastase Nakassis, Leticia S. Pibida

We describe the current status of the NIST Quantum Communication Testbed (QCT) facility. QCT is a facility for exploring quantum communication in an enviornment similar to that projected for early commercial implementations: quantum cryptographic key

Proceedings of the 2002 IEEE 4th International Workshop on Networked Appliances

January 15, 2002

Author(s)

Alan Mink

Networked appliances and home networking are emerging technologies that promist to bring about a host of exciting opportunities for information technology in the home and small office environments. In the future, we will be able to control and exchange

Author(s)

Alan Mink, Wayne J. Salamon

This document contains presentation slides for the proceeding of the 2nd Annual Digital TV Application Software Environment (DASE) Symposium 2001: End-to-End Data Services, Interoperability & Applications. The conference is co-sponsored by NIST and ATSC

A Performance Measurement Environment for Cluster Computing

August 1, 2000

Author(s)

M M. Courson, Alan Mink, G J. Marcais, B Traverse

A number of factors promote frequent running of performance measurement codes for the evaluation and tuning of both applications and platforms. NIST is developing a prototype for an automated software measurement toolset to reduce the manual effort in

Time Synchronized Measurements in Cluster Computing Systems

August 1, 2000

Author(s)

Alan Mink, Robert J. Carpenter, M M. Courson

We describe hardware time synchronization instrumentation that we have developed which achieves time synchronization of better than one microsecond. The purpose of this instrumentation is for Quality of Service characterization of parallel and distributed
