SCHWARTZ As I type this letter, the seasons are colliding. The news of a successful return of Space Exploration Technologies’ Dragon freighter was overshadowed by EDITOR hurricane Sandy. The brunt of the storm has yet to hit as I sit at my desk and, SITA P. SCHWARTZ sadly, one of the first casualties is the HMS Bounty and two of her crew members CAL LAB off the coast of North Carolina. PO Box 111113 After a dry spell of press releases for new products, my inbox is getting Aurora, CO 80042 TEL 303-317-6670 • FAX 303-317-5295 inundated with all those new products. They are spilling out on the heels of a [email protected] number of acquisitions. Even without a business background, I can’t help but www.callabmag.com make a connection—big and medium businesses readjusted themselves and then EDITORIAL ADVISORS proceeded forward. For the sake of small business, I hope this will be a positive forward trend. Logically, you’d think a greater push for metrology as technology CAROL L. SINGER needs increase would translate into more metrology business, but disappointing JAY BUCHER conference attendee turnouts this past year conflicted with that line of reasoning. BUCHERVIEW METROLOGY But then there is no indication that proceeding forward is an alternative path… CHRISTOPHER L. GRACHANEN all signs point forward! HEWLETT-PACKARD In this issue, Agilent Technologies contributed a Metrology 101 article on MIKE SURACI connector care for millimeter-wave and N-type connectors. Dr. Halawa was kind CONSULTANT enough to share his article with us, “Implementation and Verification of Building- LOCKHEED MISSILES & SPACE up AC-DC Current Transfer up to 10A.” And, the folks in vacuum calibration (RETIRED) LEAD ASSESSOR, A2LA (RETIRED) at NIST contributed a great article detailing implementation of their automated MARTIN DE GROOT calibration system. We always appreciate great articles that provide specific MARTINDEGROOT CONSULTANCY processes and the reasons why a particular lab chose to go the route they did. I really am not looking forward to stringing lights around a prickly, dead tree Subscription fees for 1 year (4 issues) again.

Abstract Nowadays, complex geometrical surface texture measurement and evaluation require advanced filtration techniques. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT), especially the second-generation wavelet (Lifting Wavelet Transform – LWT), is the most adopted one due to its unified and abundant characteristics in measured data processing, geometrical feature extraction, manufacturing process planning, and production monitoring. However, when dealing with varied complex functional surfaces, the computational payload for performing DWT in real-time often becomes a core bottleneck in the context of massive measured data and limited computational capacities. It is a more prominent
