17-18 November 2010 Standard operating systems are increasingly embedded in measuring instruments. This is advantageous for manufactures und users of the instruments, on the one hand, but also raises questions with respect to the assurance of legal metrology requirements. Flexibility gained by operating systems can be contradictory to fixing the characteristics of an instrument by type certificates. The aim of this Workshop, which is supported by WELMEC and Helmholtz-Fonds e.V., is to bring together experts from different disciplines and to discuss the above mentioned (and other) problems and approaches for solutions.

29 October 2008 On 29 October 2008, ISO CASCO will organize a workshop on market surveillance before the ISO CASCO 24th Plenary Session to be held on 30-31 October 2008 in Geneva. As the world becomes increasingly global and trade of significant value and volume regularly crosses boundaries, market surveillance becomes an imperative for safeguarding stakeholders' interests and ensuring the correct implementation of ISO standards. Liberalization and globalization of trade have brought market surveillance into the international context. Regulators want to ensure that their population's health or safety is not endangered. "Business to business" relations need to happen in a climate of trust and confidence. And consumers want to be sure that what they are buying responds to their expectations in terms of quality or environmental impact for instance. Regulatory provisions, conformity assessment and market surveillance are important elements that need to be combined to ensure a fair and trustful climate for world trade. Market surveillance can increase confidence in certification, accreditation and conformity assessment oversight processes, as well as protect the interests of Governments, business communities and consumers. The workshop on Market Surveillance thus aims to: * identify the areas of MS which could be addressed
by ISO at the international level; |
22-24 October 2008 The National Centre of Metrology (CENAM) is organizing the Simposio de Metrología 2008 as a means to exchange knowledge and to share experiences on measurement science and technology. During three days, representatives of public and private calibration and testing laboratories, industry, research centers and academic institutions, and national metrology institutes from various countries will discuss and share their problems and solutions to the constant challenge of accurate measurement, as a key support for technological innovation and to assure the quality of products and services. Participants from national metrology institutes, inspection authorities, government agencies, universities, research centres, commercial laboratories and other interested parties will take part in this Symposium. Nationally and internationally recognized specialists in various measurement fields will participate in plenary sessions and there will be contributions from those involved in the daily task of measuring: they will present results and discuss their difficulties with the aim of obtaining proposals for improvement. In addition, specialized work meetings will be held where topical issues will be discussed. A specialized industrial exhibition of measuring instruments, analytical equipment and related products, will show attendees the current technology in this field, with the help of manufacturers' representatives and suppliers of calibration and testing services. Three additional activities will add value to this Symposium: Plenary sessions, two poster sessions to provide networking between specialists and colleagues from different fields in metrology, and a program of short courses / workshops, prior to the Symposium, on important current metrological issues. We look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues at the Simposio de Metrología 2008. For more information, please refer to www.cenam.mx/simposio2008/eng/descripcion.aspx |
