Descripció

Since 1959, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has annually engaged the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to assemble panels of experts to assess the quality and effectiveness of the NIST measurements and standards laboratories as well as the adequacy of the laboratory resources. This report assesses the Material Measurement Laboratory (MML), with a focus on technical programs, quality of research, scientific and technical expertise, dissemination products and strategies, and how well budget, facilities, equipment, and human resources support technical programs and MML objectives.
