"e;Recent Advances in Reliability and Quality in Design"e; presents the latest theories and methods of reliability and quality, with emphasis on reliability and quality in design and modelling.

Reliability theory is a major concern for engineers and managers engaged in making high quality products and designing highly reliable systems.

Currently, reliability issues are not addressed effectively in new product development.
