Rezensionen

From the reviews:
"This book is aimed at the metrology community. ... The approach elaborated in this book assesses unknown systematic errors via intervals of estimated lengths. ... the author proposes the generalized Gaussian approach presented here as one which produces reliable measurement uncertainties meeting the demands of traceability." (Rainer Schlittgen, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1210, 2011)
