<abstract xml:lang="en"><title style='display:none'>Subdivision or Multiplication? The Choice of Calibration Design for Multiples of Kilogram</title>The realization, maintenance and dissemination of the SI base unit, the kilogram, is one of the tasks of the NMI's mass laboratory and is assured by means of reference standards which are traceable to the International Kilogram Prototype through the mass of the National Prototypes. This paper describes the dissemination of mass scale from 1 kg reference standard to weights of E1 class between (1…10) kg, using one of the two methods of calibration: subdivision or multiplication. The paper compares the variance of each weight obtained by both methods. The presented subdivision method deals with a link of standards following the example of Mihailov - Romanowski where the measurements start downwards from 10 kg to 1 kg. The multiplication method is the one usually used in many calibration laboratories and starts from 1 kg to 10 kg. The paper also presents an example of calibration and uncertainty calculations.</abstract>

<DIV align=left> The aim of the journal is to publish papers from scientific disciplines covering the Measurement science with an orientation toward the theory of measurement, measurement of physical quantities and measurement in biomedicine. The parameters of the journal increase the attractiveness of the magazine for many foreign authors and is considered as "significant international magazine", where published articles by authors from both European and non-European countries capture the latest trends in the field of the measurement science. Independent peer-reviewers are evaluating the submitted manuscripts. The advantage of the on-line edition of the Journal will be the speed of publication, just in a short time after receiving positive reports from reviewers. Journal is indexed in 42 databases, e.g.: Current Contents®/Engineering Computing and Technology, Thomson Reuters Master Journal List, ISI Web of Knowledge, Index Copernicus International, Scopus, Electronic Journals Library, … Editorial Board includes 38 scientists from all continents of world. The number of applications to be a member of the International Editorial Board of the MSR magazine, mainly from abroad, is increasing every year. It is generally known that Measurement science is the Science of sciences – there is no science without measurement. Each measuring process assumes an object of measurement. No phenomenon is a real phenomenon unless it observable in space and time, that is, unless it is a subject to measurement. The science of measurement is an indispensable ingredient in all scientific fields. Mathematical foundations and interpretation of the measurement science were accepted and further developed in most of the scientific fields, including physics, cosmology, geology, environment, quantum mechanics, statistics and metrology. Why subscribe and read Journal is providing an environment for information exchange among scientists, engineers and industry people, as well as encouragement of effective and coordinated research cooperation. Why submit <UL> <LI>Publishes only original articles with complete proofs by assuring a high quality reviewing process.</LI> <LI>On-line edition is an official journal of the Institute of Measurement. </LI> <LI>Science and also journal of the International Conference MEASUREMENT. </LI></UL> Archiving Sciendo archives the contents of this journal in <A href="https://www.portico.org/">Portico</A> - digital long-term preservation service of scholarly books, journals and collections.
