Reviewing the literature exploring the concept of resilience in engineering, it discusses resilience in terms of the various definitions used, the methodologies proposed to characterize resilience, and the metrics put forward to quantify the resilience of specific service infrastructure systems. The review also identifies the key factors that contribute to organizational resilience.The concept of resilience is compared to other system properties such as reliability, robustness, flexibility and agility, by ta 410 0$aSystems research series ;$vv. 3. 606 $aReliability (Engineering) 606 $aComputer networks$xReliability 615 0$aReliability (Engineering) 615 0$aComputer networks$xReliability. 676 $a003.72 700 $aMayada$b Omer$01724428 701 $aYun$b Amanda$01724429 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822735603321 996 $aThe resilience of networked infrastructure systems$94126541 997 $aUNINA
