This volume begins with a short introduction and follows with an explanation of measurement systems and models. For each system, a recurring example brings together theory and practice along with discussions of equipment, procedures, and methods. Additional subjects include estimating value, software for evaluating measurement uncertainty (GUM Workbench), the propagation of uncertainty, the uncertainty budget, and calibration.
