NIST tackles measurement

Florence Olsen writes on FCW.com:

The National Institute of Standards and Technology will lead a series of workshops this year to gather information for improving the nation's measurement capabilities in critical areas such as broadband communications, data storage technologies and new health care and homeland security technologies.

The initiative, announced last week, will help the agency uncover new measurement needs and set 21st century priorities, said NIST spokesman Mark Bello. NIST will host a U.S. Measurement Summit in early 2006, which will provide a venue for discussing how to address the nation’s new measurement priorities.
