The NA TO Advanced Study Institute is, to quote the Notes for
Applicants "primarily a high level teaching activity at which a
carefully defined subject is presented in a systematic and
coherently structured programme. The subject is treated in
considerable depth by eminent lecturers . . . . **. . . " The NATO
ASI on Generic Techniques in Systems Reliability Assessment was
held at the University of Liverpool and the Proceedings are
presented in the present volume. Regrettably many of the papers are
in shortened version. This was an inter disciplinary assembly
designed to focus on the synthesis of generic reliability concepts
and technology and to discuss relevant teaching and research in
universities and colleges. One important objective was, of course,
to give opportunity for interchange of information on advanced
techniques in reliability in various fields. The Institute was held
in Dale Hall, one of the halls of residence of the University of
Liverpool, England, from 17th to 28th July, 1973. Sixty-four
engineers from twelve countries attended, namely, 27 from U. K. ,
14 from U. S. A. 8 from Italy, 4 from West Germany, 2 from France,
2 from the Netherlands, 2 from Sweden each from Belgium, Canada,
Denmark, India and Norway. and one Seven of these had their wives
and some brought their children also. The technical affiliations
which were represented were 23 universities, 22 national
laboratories, 11 industry, 5 military, 3 consultants.
Uses a large number of industrially-significant problems to convey
an in-depth understanding of modern calculation procedures.
Includes numerous topical examples and problems, and both
conventional and SI units.
