Mathematical Sciences: On-Site Research to Advance Industrial Quality and Productivity

一个名为“现场研究， 工业质量和生产率”， 由美国国家科学基金会和 美国国家标准与技术研究院（NIST）。 的 美国统计协会将管理该计划 而NIST作为主办机构。 该计划旨在 弥合行业质量保证工作之间的差距， 学术界和政府通过组建研究团队 工业界、学术界和NIST的统计学家和工程师。 研究员可能的研究领域是： 工业实验，过程控制，先进控制技术研究 制造系统、工程和工业计算机 统计和制造过程控制的校准。

A fellowship program entitled "On-Site Research to Advance Industrial Quality and Productivity" is to be established, jointly sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The American Statistical Association will administer the program while NIST acts as the host agency. This program is designed to bridge gaps between quality assurance efforts in industry, academia and government through the formation of research teams of industrial, academic, and NIST statisticians and engineers. Possible areas of research for Fellows are statistical design of industrial experiments, process control, studies of advanced manufacturing systems, computing for engineering and industrial statistics, and calibration for manufacturing process control.
