Under the National Measurement Act 1960, NMI is responsible for coordinating Australia’s national measurement system, and for establishing, maintaining and realising Australia’s units and standards of measurement, thereby allowing Australian industry to operate competitively in a global environment.
NMI delivers essential services to the Australian economy by providing the legal and technical framework for disseminating measurement standards; working with clients in industry and government to provide measurement expertise, calibration services, chemical and biological analyses and pattern approval testing; and supporting Australia’s standards and conformance infrastructure.
NMI maintains a broad range of scientific and technical capabilities to fulfil its statutory responsibilities and to meet government and private sector requirements for traceability of measurements.
The NMI does not define a framework and it trys not to address framework issues, apart from defining three primary areas of interaction: the passing of data, the passing of control and timing information, and the passing of configuration information.
Further information regarding the interoperability of NMI components and supporting frameworks, their development and use, and all associated support file packages, is available in the Network Model Interface documentation.
The NMI is being used within a system encompassing the ventral pathway, pre-frontal areas, the frontal eye fields, the basal ganglia, the cerebellum and a model of the external world, applied to the block building task.
