Subject: Welcome (again!)


Dear bws-discuss participants:

 

I hope everyone is well rested from the biometric conference season!

 

I’d like to a welcome message to those who recently the discussion list, and ask again for comments/thoughts/feedback/edits on the draft TC charter (attached).

 

I’d also like to call the group’s attention to a quote from the NAS’s report on “Biometric Recognition: Challenges and Opportunities” report (http://www.nap.edu/catalog/12720.html).

 

“Biometric systems should be designed to anticipate the development and adoption of new advances and standards, modularizing components that are likely to become obsolete, such as biometric sensors and matcher systems, so that they can be easily replaced.”

 

I would argue that ‘BIAS’ abstracts over the ‘matcher system’ and web services for biometric devices would cover the ‘biometric sensors’ part of this assertion. Perhaps a reference to this document belongs in the charter?
