Articles

The NCSLI Metrologist magazine coined the MII concept in January 2013 in a new regular column, "Toward a Measurement Information Infrastructure", originally called "Metrology Information Infrastructure". In June 2017, NCSLI created the 141 MII & Automation Committee (MII&AC) to support, develop and document the MII.
