Room to which printed copies will be delivered (first author or
contact person only)
Contact person
Person designated as contact instead of the first author
Report title
Must match title on NF1676 (The title is needed to ensure that
documentation stays with the correct job.)
2. Funding division number

is based
Current funded WBS or Cost Center number
Number in this format xxxxxx.xx..xx.xx representing the valid, funded, current fiscal year task number

Standard Distribution reports (Choose up to three numbers from NASA's
Scope and Subject Category Guide.)
Subject terms
Used to index and retrieve information in the NASA scientific and
technical information system (Must be from
NASA
Thesaurus. Choose up to seven terms.)
Are trade names used? _ Yes _ No
Mark a box to indicate whether any
trade names (e.g., Tyvek, Cray, Teflon, IBM, Cessna) are used
in a report so that the proper disclaimer can be displayed on the back of the
title page.
3. Report type
(See NPR
2200.2, section 2.3)
NASA published, given a NASA report number
Classifications of material published by the NASA STI program (e.g., TM, TP,
CR, and so on)
TM (Technical Memorandum)
Preliminary findings or findings of interest to a limited number of
readers with no extensive analysis
TM and Presentation
NASA-numbered report version of findings presented orally at a
conference, symposium, seminar, or other meeting (when at least one author is a
NASA employee)
TM and journal article/book or chapter/book
NASA-numbered report version of journal article or book chapter
preprint (when at least one author is a NASA employee)
CR (Contractor Report)
Report of findings obtained from NASA-sponsored research performed by
contractors or grant employees
CR and Presentation
NASA-numbered report version of findings presented orally at a
conference, symposium, seminar, or other meeting (when the author is a NASA
contractor or grantee)
CR and journal article/book or chapter/book
NASA-numbered report version of journal article or book chapter
preprint (when the author is a NASA contractor or grantee)
TP (Technical Publication)
Completed research or significant phase of research, usually
including extensive data or theoretical analysis (The TP is equivalent to a
peer-reviewed formal professional paper, but with no length restriction.)
CP (Conference Publication)
Collection of papers from NASA-sponsored scientific and technical
conferences, symposia, seminars, or other meetings sponsored or cosponsored by
NASA (A CP is always a compilation, not an individual paper.)
SP (Special Publication)
Scientific, technical, management, or historical information from
NASA programs, projects, or missions, often having substantial general public
interest
Not NASA published, no NASA report number
Classifications of reports not published by NASA or given a NASA
report number, but entered into the NASA data base, announced, and archived
Presentation
Material presented orally at a conference, symposium, seminar, or
other meeting, not published by NASA or given a NASA report number (This kind
of report is entered into the NASA data base, announced, and archived; the
author is recognized ("credited") as having produced the report.)
Identifying information for presentations and for articles submitted
to journals
Meeting title, location, date, sponsor, paper number, journal title,
publisher
Preprint journal article/book or chapter/book
Material submitted to a journal or book publisher, not published by
NASA or given a NASA report number (This kind of report is entered into the
NASA data base, announced, and archived; the author is recognized
("credited") as having produced the report.)
4. Distribution
Nonstandard distribution (normal)
Distribution to NASA libraries, Center for AeroSpace Information (
CASI),
National Technical Information Service (NTIS),
and Government Printing
Office
Standard distribution
Distribution to domestic and international subscribers, NASA
libraries, Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI), National Technical
Information Service (NTIS), and Government Printing Office (requires editing
and an Export Control
Information System (ECIS) number for export)
Export Control
Information System (ECIS) number
Tracking number to control the distribution of information and
protect sensitive technologies from unauthorized disclosure. Because Standard
distribution reports are distributed outside the U.S., they are considered
exports.
Restricted distribution
Distribution to qualified recipients based on the ITAR, EAR, or
confidential commercial availability category marked in block III of
NF1676
Local distribution
Copies for the author to distribute in addition to Nonstandard,
Standard, or Restricted distribution
Credit only
For reports not published by NASA, credit given to the author. There
is no distribution. Becomes part of NASA's data base, and is announced and
archived in
NASA
CASI
5. Do you want this report edited?
Mark a box to indicate whether or not you want this report to be
edited. Standard distribution
reports must be edited unless division chief waives editing. A range of editing
services is available in Publishing Services (Logistics and Technical
Information Division), from low-level edits for spelling and grammar to
high-level edits for clarity and organization.
6. Contract or grant number
Contract or grant number under which research was funded when work
was performed by a contractor or grantee (e.g., NAS-3 12345 or NAG3-1234)
Monitor
Glenn civil service employee who supervised the contract under which
this STI was generated
Monitor's phone number
Onsite number at which the contract monitor can be reached during
business hours
Monitor's mail stop
Mail stop where material and final reports will be mailed

Monitor's E-mail address
Electronic address to which information about the report may be
sent
7. Management reviews
Reviews of NASA STI reports to ensure that they conform to NASA professional
standards (See NPR
2200.2A, section 4.4.) Intellectual property officer (IPO) review may be
required by Glenn funding, program, or project management
8. Technical reviews
Reviews of NASA STI reports to ensure that they are technically accurate (See
NPR
2200.2, section 4.4.)
