REVIEW OF THREE DIVISIONS OF THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY LABORATORY AT THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY
At the request of the Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in 2015 the National Research Council1 formed the Panel on Review of the Information Technology Laboratory at the National Institute of Standards and Technology and formulated the following statement of task for the panel:
The National Research Council shall appoint a panel to assess the scientific and technical work performed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Information Technology Laboratory. This panel will review technical reports and technical program descriptions prepared by NIST staff and will visit the facilities at the Information Technology Laboratory. Visits will include technical presentations by NIST staff, demonstrations of NIST projects, tours of NIST facilities, and discussions with NIST staff. The panel will prepare a report summarizing its assessment findings.
NIST specified that three of the six divisions of the Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) would be reviewed: the Information Access Division (IAD), the Software and Systems Division (SSD), and the Statistical Engineering Division (SED). The following ITL divisions were not reviewed because they had recently been reorganized: the Applied and Computational Mathematics Division, the Computer Security Division, and the Advanced Networking Technologies Division. NIST plans to request their review in the future. The NIST Director requested that the panel focus its assessment on the following factors:
