The Mathematicalbasis Of Standards

this paper explores the mathematical basis of standards. Five successions of standards are identified from pre-history to the present and mathematical models of each are presented. These mathematical models more rigorously define the standards successions proposed. The impact of these standard successions on existing standardization issues is examine

Exploring Adaptable Access in Next Generation Networks

An "etiquette" is required but is missing from the planned NGN architecture. An etiquette provides the mechanism to fairly select which access technology to use when multiple access technologies are deployed in the same network. This paper identifies the benefits an etiquette offers, describes how an etiquette can improve NGN over 3G networks, and explains how standardizing an etiquette for NGN can affect intellectual property issues

The non-local nature of a measurement

This short paper identifies that the concept of a local measurement is always violated by a necessary metrological process – calibration. J. S. Bell's formal development of the same violation demonstrates that the EPR paradox and related discontinuities may be resolved by including the calibration process in a measurement process, as formalized in Measurement, February 2018 “Relative Measurement Theory”
