A concept of interlaboratory consensus for categorical characteristics of a substance, material, or object

Interlaboratory studies are widely used for: 1) evaluation of calibration and measurement capabilities of national metrology institutes and designated institutes participating in key and supplementary comparisons; 2) estimation of proficiency (competence) of calibration and testing laboratories; and 3) development of certified reference materials. When a reference value for the measurand is unknown, the laboratory results may be used to estimate (build) a measurand consensus value applicable ...

Large-Scale Virtual Calibration of MEMS Sensors

The EU Digital Decade Policy Programme 2030 strongly depends on safe and reliable cutting-edge technologies, like Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) sensors, that are widely used in large sensor networks for infrastructural, environmental, healthcare, safety, automotive, energy and industrial monitoring. Their massive production, often in the order of millions/week, requires costly and time-consuming calibration processes, resulting in a lack of metrological traceability. Indeed, current...

Memristance and transmemristance in multiterminal memristive systems

Memristive devices represent promising building blocks for the development of next-generation memory technologies, computing architectures, and neuromorphic systems. In addition to conventional two-terminal memristive circuits and crossbar array structures, multiterminal memristive systems, where emergent behaviours arise from the mutual interaction of numerous memristive elements, have been explored for neuromorphic data processing and computing applications. In this work, we extend the conc...
