Precision Measurement and Calibration. Volume 1. Statistical Concepts and Procedures

Abstract

This volume is one of an extended series which brings together the previously published papers, monographs, abstracts, and bibliographies by NBS authors dealing with the precision measurement of specific physical quantities and the calibration of the related metrology equipment. The contents have been selected as being useful to the standards laboratories of the United States in tracing to NBS standards the accuracies of measurement needed for research work, factory production, or field evaluation. Volume 1 deals with methodology in the generation, analysis, and interpretation of precision measurement data. It contains 40 reprints assembled in 6 sections: (1) The Measurement Process; (2) Design of Experiments in Calibration; (3) Interlaboratory Tests; (4) Functional Relationships; (5) Statistical Treatment of Measurement Data; and (6) Miscellaneous. Each section is introduced by an interpretive foreword, and the whole is supplemented by abstracts and selected references.
