SELF-CONFIGURING MEASUREMENT NETWORKS
Journal Title: Metrology and Measurement Systems - Year 2007, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
This discussion paper presents issues in the design of self-configuring networked measurement systems. Key requisites are summarized at first. Then, architectural features will be analyzed in order to let a designer be aware of advantages and efforts of presented choices, that allow a revolutionary shift of emphasis from a PC-centric measurement architecture, to a network-centric architecture.

HE INFLUENCE OF THE BALL MATERIAL ON THE BRINELL HARDNESS
A Brinell hardness tester with carbide and steel balls was calibrated and thereafter the hardness of ten samples of steel STN 41 1600 was measured by four appraisers. The uncertainty of calibration and of the hardness me...
INTERRUPTER VALVE KINEMATICS IN THE ISSUES OF PARAMETER ESTIMATION OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM MODEL
The latest papers have been suggesting that the dynamics of transient state should be taken into account as the phenomena which occur in a respiratory system are interpreted (quantitatively and qualitatively). The influe...
LINEAR OPERATION OF DISCRETE SIGNAL TRACKING
The idea of discrete signal "tracking" action was put into practice many years ago. So-called dot recorders are best examples of its application. The dynamics of the dot-recorder measuring mechanism can be linear and non...
QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF HIGH VOLTAGE VARISTORS BY THIRD HARMONIC INDEX
High voltage varistors that consist mainly of grained ZnO have to be tested before assembling into a surge arrester. The existing methods demand a usage of high voltages and intensive currents that is inconvenient, destr...
PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF "FIELD PROGRAMMABLE ANALOG ARRAYS"
Field Programmable Analog Arrays (FPAAs) are reconfigurable analog modules introduced on the electronic market in the last decade. Their operation and, in particular, their programmability is achieved owing to the use of...
