... The approach of the panel to the assessment relied on the experience, technical knowledge, and expertise of its members, whose backgrounds were carefully matched to the technical areas of CNST activities. The panel reviewed selected examples of the technological 4 The six NIST laboratories are the Material Measurement Laboratory, the Physical Measurement Laboratory, the Engineering Laboratory, the Information Technology Laboratory, the Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology, and the NIST Center for Neutron Research.

... The panel's goal was to identify and report salient examples of accomplishments and opportunities for further improvement with respect to the following: the degree to which the CNST programs achieve their stated objectives and fulfill the CNST mission, the technical merit and scientific caliber of the CNST work, and the alignment between CNST R&D efforts and CNST services and other mission-critical deliverables. These examples are intended collectively to portray an overall impression of the laboratory, while preserving useful suggestions specific to projects and programs that the panel examined.
