− This paper presents a domain-theoretic model for measurements and measuring instruments, by making explicit in simplex-domain structures two important aspects of measurement processes: the notion of standard representation relation, established between the (physical) values that are being measured and the meanings of the readings (semantic values) of the measuring instruments used to measure ...

Linear measurement includes the measurement of lengths, diameters, heights and thickness. The basic principle of linear measurement (mechanical type) is that of comparison with standard dimensions on a suitably engraved instrument or device. Linear measuring instruments are categorized depending upon their accuracy. The two categories are non-precision instruments and precision instruments. Non...
