Title: Automated Calibration Systems At Nbs An Overview

Abstract: Automation of calibration systems at the National Bureau of Standards began when minicomputers suitable for dedicated applications became available more than fifteen years ago. Progress was substantially accelerated, about ten years ago, when a special NBS program was initiated to make minicomputers available and encourage their use for laboratory automation. This program involved the establishment of a technically competent support group to provide consulting help and the purchase of standardized hardware in quantity lots. A significant part of the computer technology now incorporated in automated calibration systems resulted directly from this program. Progress was further accelerated by the advent of microcomputers and particularly, during the past six or seven years, the availability of increasingly large random access memories and low cost mass storage media.
