Safety is a major concern of society and touches on many areas of
human activity. One important component of safety is the
reliability of equipment and systems and the actions of the
professionals, who design, build and operate them. Modelling
methods have been developed to assess the risk associated with
taking decisions relating to the design, maintenance or operation
of a system. Such models include the element of uncertainty
inherent in the behaviour of any given system. There are a number
of theories, techniques and methods available, continuously being
developed and improved, which evaluate the safety and reliability
of systems, ensuring that these are operated and managed in a way
as to keep the associated risks within the boundaries of what is
considered tolerable or acceptable. These proceedings highlight the
theories and methods used to assess safety and reliability,
presenting them as powerful tools for decision-making which can be
used effectively to manage the daily risks to which modern society
is exposed.
