Abstract

Uncertainty of measurement has attracted more researchers in recent past. In this paper, an attempt is made to review the status of literatures in measurement uncertainty . The uncertainty of measurement is related to measurement and calibration process only. A very few literatures are available related to uncertainty of measurement. Aliterature classification scheme is suggested. Anumber of articles from referred international journals and international conferences are classified based on various methodology (GUM, analytical approach and montecarlo approach etc). The paper shows the country wise awareness in the field of uncertainty. The gap in the research are identified along with the scope of UOM in various application.

Keywords- Uncertainty of measurement,sources of variations,errors,GUM, Montecarlo ,material testing, chemical testing, modeling techniques.
