---

The Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been assessed by the Panel on Information Technology, appointed by the National Research Council (NRC). The panel of experts visited the six divisions of the laboratory and reviewed their activities. The scope of the assessment included the following criteria, provided by the Director of NIST in his charge to the NRC: (1) the degree to which laboratory programs in measurement science, standards, and services achieve their stated objectives and fulfill the mission of the operating unit (laboratory); (2) the technical merits and scientific caliber of the current laboratory programs relative to comparable programs worldwide; and (3) the alignment between laboratory research and development (R&D) efforts and those services and other mission-critical deliverables for which the laboratory is responsible. On the basis of its assessment using these criteria, the panel formed the observations and recommendations presented below, among others discussed in this report.
