A Model of a Wireless Factory Work-Cell Using the Systems Modeling Language
No full textWireless technology is a key enabler of the vision of the future factory work-cell. Such a work-cell will operate autonomously with a high degree of mobility enabled by wireless technology. This paper describes the work-cell using the Systems Modeling Language (SysML). Using SysML the structural and parametric characteristics of the work-cell are described. Our model provides the architectural components and performance constraints of the work-cell in which wireless is used for a significant portion of connectivity. It identifies the structural components, interfaces, and data flows. Parametric characteristics that impact work-cell performance are included in the model. Using this model, industrial wireless networking requirements and work-cell behaviors may be developed and performance limits may be evaluated. The SysML model presented here is developed using MagicDraw1 18.5 by No Magic
A close-up of a yellowish marble from Coimbra, Portugal, part of the NIST stone wall
No full textThis is an image of fine-grained yellowish marble from Coimbra, Portugal. The stone is part of the NIST stone wall, which was built using 2,352 stones from 47 US states and 320 from 16 foreign countries. The wall is approximately 12 m long, 4 m high, 0.6 m thick at the bottom, and 0.3 m at the top. The aim of the wall construction was to study the aging process of stones used in construction under outside weathering conditions

No full textIdentifying NIST Impacts on Patenting: A Novel Data Set and Potential Uses
No full textThe National Institute of Standards and Technology�s (NIST�s) mission is to �promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness.� To meet this mission, NIST scientists produce a great variety of scientific and technical outputs. This paper presents results from a novel effort to measure usage and impact of a more complete set of outputs, including patents, publications, research data, software, reference materials, and a variety of additional formal and informal scientific outputs. This effort captures a significantly broader set of scientific outputs than traditional citation analysis which typically examines patent-to-patent citations or more recently patent-to-(peer-reviewed) paper citations. This may be of significant importance to NIST as NIST scientists produce a wide variety of scientific and technical outputs beyond patents and papers. Our results indicate that metrics that solely rely on patents issued to NIST inventors understate NIST�s true impact on invention and do not capture usage of much of NIST�s scientific output by other inventors. Thus, identifying the magnitude and varied usage of different types of NIST outputs represents a significant improvement in NIST impact metrics. The results clearly indicate that different companies, industries and technologies rely on different types of NIST outputs. Therefore, reliance on a limited set of technology transfer tools by either researchers or policy makers creates a risk that NIST knowledge and capabilities will not be transferred to and adopted by businesses and other organizations. Finally, the data developed here suggest a number of new technology transfer metrics that promote shared technology transfer responsibilities and may focus attention on activities that increase the impact of current research without fundamentally altering the infrastructural character of this research
