By now most of us know that, in the 19th century, the first scientific revolution occurred in Britain and Europe.
But in the 1920s and 30s, there was a big scientific breakthrough in America.
In 1924, the US Government launched the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a federal agency created to standardise the methods used to design and build modern aircraft and trains.
The first of its kind, NIST set out to create an open and independent standard that would enable scientists to conduct their work freely, using any standard.
But this would also open the door for scientists to be attacked.
When NIST launched its first National Institute Standard, in 1921, it was criticised for failing to do enough to ensure that the standards used were reliable.
By 1925, the NIST’s first standard had been rejected by the US government, leading to a period of protest by the science community.
That’s when the idea for the first public domain standard, the Common Core, was born.
When NISETS first launched in 2020, it received the endorsement of a wide range of academics and scientists.
Over the years, the public-domain standard has grown in popularity, attracting scientists from all over the world, from China, India, Australia, the USA, South Africa, the UK and elsewhere.
And for good reason: NIST is a public-good standard, based on open standards and free innovation.
Its purpose is to ensure the continued progress of science and technology across the world and to ensure science and research is freely accessible and available to all.
NIST is not a monopoly.
In fact, NISETs standards are increasingly used by the academic community, with more than 40 different standards available.
A range of research and academic organisations support NIST.
For example, the British government supports the standard through funding, and in 2017, the Royal Society of Chemistry and the British Society for Chemical Biology joined the Common Core effort.
And NIST also supports the public sector through funding.
As well as funding public sector research, NISC also has a dedicated staff to ensure NIST standards are being applied to every aspect of science.
In 2019, NISEAT, an independent standards advisory group, endorsed NIST for the Second International Standardisation Program at the International Conference on Standardization.
“This year we achieved our goal to have the public domain standard of NIST adopted by the Government of the United Kingdom,” says Nicky McNeil, director of public policy at NISEATS.
However, it is important to remember that, like the first public-standard standard, the Common Council for Standards and Standards (CCSS), NISTs own standards will never be accepted by any other organisation, including the Government.
“NISETS standards are a public good standard,” says McNeil.
“NIST standards will always be the best available, and the NISES standard is a part of that.”
So what happens when you want to use NISets standards?
When you want the latest NISTS standards to be used in your work, you have to be aware of the fact that NISATS standards are based on a set of rules that are based around the Common Standard.
You cannot use NIST in place of the NISE standard if you are working on a new product, product category or other new product.
The public-domain standard is used to ensure every scientific process is tested on the NISSETS standards, and this means that any scientific work using NISOTs standards can only be used as a first step to making a new, improved product.
This means that if you want your application to be validated against NISIT standards, you will need to use a third-party lab.
For example NISET standards can be used to test for the effectiveness of a chemical in an industrial process such as steam production, or in the development of a new drug.
If you want NISOTS standards to apply to any new or different product, you need to check with the supplier.
While there are many reasons why you would want to test against a NISOS standards, the most important is that NISSET standards are used to protect the public interest.
We should not expect NISTO standards to guarantee a product will be safe for use in a new application.
So if you do want to do a new test against NISSOTS standards, ensure that you are using NIST standard.
One other thing to keep in mind is that you should always test your own work against the NISO standards.
These are based specifically on the Common NISSO standards, so the results of any test will reflect the Common Common Standard, as it was developed.
What are the benefits of using the NISC?
