    Representation of Derived Units in UnitsML (revised December 8, 2006) Peter J. Linstrom∗ December 8, 2006 ∗phone: (301) 975-5422,DRAFT e-mail: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION 12/8/06 Contents 1 Introduction 1 2 Why this convention is needed 2 3 Information needed to define a unit 3 4 Proposed XML encoding 4 5 Important conventions 7 6 Potential problems 8 7 Possible alternatives 10 A Multiplicative prefixes 12 B SI units and units acceptable for use with the SI 14 C non-SI Units 19 1 Introduction This document describes a proposed convention for defining derived units in terms of their base units. This convention is intended for use in the UnitsML markup language to allow a precise definition of a wide range of units. The goal of this convention is to improve interoperability among applications and databases which use derived units based on commonly encountered base units. It is understoodDRAFT that not all units can be represented using this convention. It is, however, Representation of Derived Units in UnitsML (revised December 8, 2006) Page 1 2 WHY THIS CONVENTION IS NEEDED 12/8/06 anticipated that a wide range of scientific and engineering units of measure can be represented with this convention. The convention consists of representing the unit in terms of multiplicative combinations of base units. For example the unit centimeter per second squared would be represented in terms of the following: 1. The unit meter with the prefix centi raised to the power 1. 2. The unit second raised to the power −2.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE NATIONAL OUREAU OF STANDARDS HANDBOOK 102 THE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS The National Bureau of Standards 1 provides measurement and technical information services essential to the efficiency and effectiveness of the work of the Nation’s scientists and engineers. The Bureau serves also as a focal point in the Federal Government for assuring maximum application of the physical and engineering sciences to the advancement of technology in industry and commerce. To accomplish this mission, the Bureau is organized into three institutes covering broad program areas of research and services: THE INSTITUTE FOR BASIC STANDARDS . provides the central basis within the United States for a complete and consistent system of physical measurements, coordinates that system with the measurement systems of other nations, and furnishes essential services leading to accurate and uniform physical measurements throughout the Nation’s scientific com¬ munity, industry, and commerce. This Institute comprises a series of divisions, each serving a classical subject matter area: —Applied Mathematics — Electricity—Metrology — Mechanics — Heat — Atomic Physics—Physical Chemistry—Radiation Physics—Laboratory Astrophysics2—Radio Standards Laboratory,2 which includes Radio Standards Physics and Radio Standards Engineering—Office of Standard Reference Data. THE INSTITUTE FOR MATERIALS RESEARCH . conducts materials research and provides associated materials services including mainly reference materials and data on the properties of materials. Beyond its direct interest to the Nation’s scientists and engineers, this Institute yields services which are essential to the advancement of technology in industry and commerce.
