on Weights and Measures

From the First to the Seventy-Third

(1905 to 1988)
rhe National Institute of Standards and Technology1 was established by an act of Congress on March 3, 1901. The Institute's overall goal is to strengthen and advance the Nation's science and technology and

facilitate their effective application for public benefit. To this end, the Institute conducts research to assure international competitiveness and leadership of U.S. industry, science and technology. NIST work involves development

and transfer of measurements, standards and related science and technology, in support of continually improving

U.S. productivity, product quality and reliability, innovation and underlying science and engineering. The Institute's technical work is performed by the National Measurement Laboratory, the National Engineering Laboratory, the National Computer Systems Laboratory, and the Institute for Materials Science and Engineering.

The National Measurement Laboratory

Provides the national system of physical and chemical measurement;

coordinates the system with measurement systems of other nations and furnishes essential services leading to accurate and uniform

physical and chemical measurement throughout the Nation's scientific community, industry, and commerce; provides advisory and research

services to other Government agencies; conducts physical and chemical

research; develops, produces, and distributes Standard Reference

Materials; provides calibration services; and manages the National

Standard Reference Data System. The Laboratory consists of the following centers: The National Engineering Laboratory

Provides technology and technical services to the public and private

sectors to address national needs and to solve national problems;

conducts research in engineering and applied science in support of these

efforts; builds and maintains competence in the necessary disciplines

required to carry out this research and technical service; develops engineering data and measurement capabilities; provides engineering measure- ment traceability services; develops test methods and proposes engineering standards and code changes; develops and proposes new

engineering practices; and develops and improves mechanisms to

transfer results of its research to the ultimate user. The Laboratory

consists of the following centers: The National Computer Systems Laboratory

FOREWORD

Since the inception of the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM)

in 1905, a great deal of information on a wide variety of weights and measures subjects has been published in the Reports of the Annual Meetings of the NCWM. This publication

is designed to assist those who use the NCWM Reports in finding information on specific

subjects or Conference presentations. It includes a subject index and a speaker index

covering the proceedings of the Annual Meetings from the First in 1905 through the

Seventy-Third in 1988.

This publication supersedes NBS Special Publication 691, which was an index of

the Proceedings from the First through the Sixty-Ninth. The information from the First through the Fifty-Sixth was compiled by Frances Bell; from the Fifty-Seventh through

the Sixty-Ninth by William G. Mott; and from the Seventieth through the SeventyThird by Nancy H. Chaconas.

Index to the Reports

of the

National Conference on Weights and Measures

From the First to the Seventy-Third (1905 to 1988)

Reports of the National Conference are published annually by the National Institute of Standards and

Technology (formerly National Bureau of Standards). From 1905 through 1966, they were printed as Miscellaneous

Publications with the prefix "M". From 1967 to the present time, they are printed as Special Publications with

the prefix "SP".

For ease of reference, the index is presented in two parts: 1) a subject index; and 2) a speaker index. The subject index has been arranged to avoid lengthy listings under main topics. For instance:

o Under the main topic "scales," the reader is referred to main entries for specific types of scales.

o Under the main topic "specifications and tolerances," the reader is referred to main entries for specifications and tolerances for specific types of weighing or measuring devices.

o Some items, such as "resolutions" or "task groups" are listed under the topics they pertain to.

In an effort to anticipate the user's approach, many of the items are cross-referenced or are listed more than once,

i.e., as a main entry and again as a secondary entry to the appropriate topic.

The speaker index is arranged alphabetically by name of speaker; under each name, the presentations

of the speaker are listed alphabetically.

To identify the entries, the number of the annual meeting is shown in dark print preceding the comma

in the citation, and the page number is in normal print after the comma (i.e., "68, 112" means that the item cited can be found in the Report of the 68th National Conference on page 112). Each set of report and page numbers

is separated from the next set by a semicolon.

Appendix A lists National Conference Reports and provides information on how to obtain copies.

1 Ak3 A. Technical Publications

Periodical

Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology—Reports NIST research

and development in those disciplines of the physical and engineering sciences in which the Institute

is active. These include physics, chemistry, engineering, mathematics, and computer sciences.

Papers cover a broad range of subjects, with major emphasis on measurement methodology and

the basic technology underlying standardization. Also included from time to time are survey articles on topics closely related to the Institute's technical and scientific programs. Issued six times a year.

Nonperiodicals

Monographs—Major contributions to the technical literature on various subjects related to the

Institute's scientific and technical activities. Handbooks—Recommended codes of engineering and industrial practice (including safety codes) de- veloped in cooperation with interested industries, professional organizations, and regulatory bodies.

Special Publications—Include proceedings of conferences sponsored by NIST, NIST annual reports,

and other special publications appropriate to this grouping such as wall charts, pocket cards, and

bibliographies.

Applied Mathematics Series—Mathematical tables, manuals, and studies of special interest to physicists, engineers, chemists, biologists, mathematicians, computer programmers, and others engaged in scientific and technical work.

National Standard Reference Data Series—Provides quantitative data on the physical and chemical

properties of materials, compiled from the world's literature and critically evaluated. Developed un- der a worldwide program coordinated by NIST under the authority of the National Standard Data

Act (Public Law 90-396). NOTE: The Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data (JPCRD)

is published quarterly for NIST by the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the American Insti- tute of Physics (AIP). Subscriptions, reprints, and supplements are available from ACS, 1155 Six- teenth St., NW., Washington, DC 20056.

Building Science Series—Disseminates technical information developed at the Institute on building

materials, components, systems, and whole structures. The series presents research results, test methods, and performance criteria related to the structural and environmental functions and the

durability and safety characteristics of building elements and systems.

Technical Notes—Studies or reports which are complete in themselves but restrictive in their treat- ment of a subject. Analogous to monographs but not so comprehensive in scope or definitive in treatment of the subject area. Often serve as a vehicle for final reports of work performed at NIST

under the sponsorship of other government agencies.

Voluntary Product Standards—Developed under procedures published by the Department of Commerce in Part 10, Title 15, of the Code of Federal Regulations. The standards establish nationally

recognized requirements for products, and provide all concerned interests with a basis for common

understanding of the characteristics of the products. NIST administers this program as a supplement

to the activities of the private sector standardizing organizations.

Consumer Information Series—Practical information, based on NIST research and experience, covering areas of interest to the consumer. Easily understandable language and illustrations provide useful background knowledge for shopping in today's technological marketplace.

Order the above NISTpublications from: Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office,

Washington, DC 20402.

Order the following NISTpublications—FIPS and NISTIRs—from the National Technical Information

Service, Springfield, VA 22161.

Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS PUB)—Publications in this series col- lectively constitute the Federal Information Processing Standards Register. The Register serves as the official source of information in the Federal Government regarding standards issued by NIST

pursuant to the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 as amended, Public Law

89-306 (79 Stat. 1127), and as implemented by Executive Order 11717 (38 FR 12315, dated May 11, 1973) and Part 6 of Title 15 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations).

NIST Interagency Reports (NISTIR)—A special series of interim or final reports on work performed

by NIST for outside sponsors (both government and non-government). In general, initial distribu- tion is handled by the sponsor; public distribution is by the National Technical Information Service,

Springfield, VA 22161, in paper copy or microfiche form.
