Treaty verification with an uncertain partner

Weissenberger, S. - 2008

A simple model is used to analyze the performance of a system for verifying compliance with an arms control treaty. Blue and Red are partners in to a treaty. Blue prefers to comply, but is uncertain whether Red similarly prefers compliance (in the absence of threatened violation detection)....

Principles and applications of measurement and uncertainty analysis in research and calibration

Wells, C.V. - 2008

Interest in Measurement Uncertainty Analysis has grown in the past several years as it has spread to new fields of application, and research and development of uncertainty methodologies have continued. This paper discusses the subject from the perspectives of both research and calibration...

Guidance document on the variance propagation requirements in DOE Order 5633. 3

Sanborn, J. - 2008

DOE facilities handling special nuclear material are required to comply with DOE Order 5633.3, which addresses various aspects of nuclear material accounting. In particular, it requires that control limits be calculated for nuclear material inventory differences. These requirements and methods...

Two-stage sampling for acceptance testing

Atwood, C.L.; Bryan, M.F. - 2008

Sometimes a regulatory requirement or a quality-assurance procedure sets an allowed maximum on a confidence limit for a mean. If the sample mean of the measurements is below the allowed maximum, but the confidence limit is above it, a very widespread practice is to increase the sample size and...

Effect of initial seed and number of samples on simple-random and Latin-Hypercube Monte Carlo probabilities (confidence interval considerations)

ROMERO,VICENTE J. - 2008

In order to devise an algorithm for autonomously terminating Monte Carlo sampling when sufficiently small and reliable confidence intervals (CI) are achieved on calculated probabilities, the behavior of CI estimators must be characterized. This knowledge is also required in comparing the...

Experimental uncertainty estimation and statistics for data having interval uncertainty.

Kreinovich, Vladik; Oberkampf, William Louis; Ginzburg, Lev - 2008
