Note This book contains a selection of papers originally presented at the 5th Mathematical Methods in Reliability conference, hosted by the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow in 2007.
Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
Contents Title page; Introduction; Contents; Graphical Modeling and Bayesian Networks; Repairable Systems Modeling; Competing Risks; Mixture Failure Rate Modeling; Signature; Relations Among Aging and Stochastic Dependence; Theoretical Advances in Modeling, Inference and Computation; Recent Advances in Recurrent Event Modeling and Inference; Point Estimation of the Transition Intensities for a Markov Multi-State System via Output Performance Observation; Keyword Index; Author Index.
Summary Discusses fundamental issues on mathematical modeling in reliability theory and its applications. Beginning with a discussion of graphical modeling and Bayesian networks, this work then focuses on repairable systems. It also addresses how competing risks arise in reliability and maintenance analysis through the ways in which data is censored.
