"Every field of endeavour, especially in engineering, is dynamic. What we taught today is discardedtomorrow. The problems don't change but our answers to them do change" Peter K. Stein, PhoenixArizona USA in his book Measurement Engineering, Stein Engineering Services Inc. Phoenix,Arizona 1964, p.ii.Aim of the paper is1. to show why the current progress in information and communication technology changes the roleof metrology in theory and practice2. to explain how the traditional paradigm of measurements undergoes a fundamental change toInternet metrology3. to list which selected advances in theory and practice of intelligent measurements are a reliablebasis for the development of Internet metrology and4. to elaborate which selected challenges in metrology must be tackled to mature the InternetMetrology.Internet Measurement and Self-Calibration have analogous aims.They are a part of Internet Metrology. For easier handling most practical examples will be given forpressure sensors, instrumentation and measurements. But the basic messages are valid for anysensors, instrumentation and measurements.
