Including associated application areas such as dependable computing, performance evaluation, software engineering, communication engineering, distinguished researchers review and build on the contributions over the last four decades by Professor Shunji Osaki. Fundamental yet significant research results are presented and discussed clearly alongside new ideas and topics on stochastic reliability and maintenance modeling to inspire future research. Across 15 chapters readers gain the knowledge and understanding to apply reliability and maintenance theory to computer and communication systems. Stochastic Reliability and Maintenance Modeling is ideal for graduate students and researchers in reliability engineering, and workers, managers and engineers engaged in computer, maintenance and management works.Springer series in reliability engineering ;volume 9.Stochastic analysisStochastic analysis.620.00452Dohi Tadashi1103518Nakagawa Toshio1942-724944MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437766303321Stochastic reliability and maintenance modeling4202245UNINA
