Sommario/riassunto

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.

Sommario/riassunto

Matt Goldish shifts the focus of Sabbatean studies from the theology of Lurianic Kabbalah to the widespread 17th century belief in latter-day prophecy. By placing Sabbateanism in this broad cultural context, Goldish integrates this Jewish messianic movement into the early modern world.
