The National Institute of Standards and Technology Standard Reference Material (SRM) 2460/2461 standard bullets and casings project will provide support to firearms examiners and to the National Integrated Ballistics Information Network (NIBIN) in the United States. The SRM bullet is designed as both a virtual and a physical bullet profile signature standard. The virtual standard is a set of si...

CCD cameras are ubiquitous in research labs, industry, and hospitals for a huge variety of applications, but there are many dynamic processes in nature that unfold too quickly to be captured. Although tradeoffs can be made between exposure time, sensitivity, and area of interest, ultimately the speed limit of a CCD camera is constrained by the electronic readout rate of the sensors. One potenti...

Previous panel papers have described testing for NERC and WSCC compliance [A] and testing and tuning of governors for compliance and island-mode performance [B]. This paper presents experience with testing of gas turbine plants for NERC and WSCC compliance. Testing has been performed on older analog-electronic and new digital-electronic units. The level of detail used in modeling and model avai...

SRM is a generic framework for reliable multicast data delivery. The retransmission requests and replies used in SRM error recovery are multicast to the entire group. SRM uses random timers to avoid the message implosion problem, and the eeectiveness of SRM's duplicate suppression depends critically on the design of these random timers. In order to achieve good performance in a dynamic network ...

Structural changes and increasing market dynamics in the health care sector intensify the hospitals’ need for cost-savings and process optimization. One source to generate not only short-term savings but also sustainable benefits is the active and sophisticated management of the relationship with different suppliers, also known as supplier relationship management (SRM). As in the health care se...

The selection of control strategy depends on the converters of the drive including power, speed, performance and the possible system costs. A number of attempts were therefore made in recent times to develop novel power electronic converter structures for SRM drives, based on the utilization. Many of the converters with variable speed drives have no input power factor correction circuits. This ...

Storage Resource Managers (SRMs) are middleware components whose function is to provide dynamic space allocation and file management on shared storage components on the Grid[1,2]. SRMs support protocol negotiation and reliable replication mechanism. The SRM standard supports independent SRM implementations, allowing for a uniform access to heterogeneous storage elements. SRMs allow site-specifi...
