Such complexity makes the assessment of reliability and safety particularly difficult. Kolowrocki delivers the complete elaboration of the asymptotic approach to reliability evaluation. The text is mathematical, but applications of these methods cover wide range of engineering fields, from communication networks and microelectronic devices to transportation systems, piping transportation of water, gas, oil and various chemical substances. Only reference with on asymptotic approach to reliability currently on the market Suitable for use as a postgraduate course book Contains many new theoretical results 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aSystem safety 650 0$aSystem theory$xAsymptotic theory 650 0$aEngineering$xSafety measures 650 0$aSystem analysis 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0080444296$z9780080444291$w(DLC) 2004044790$w(OCoLC)55102565 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780080444291$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 41$zTable of contents only$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/els051/2004044790.html 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0645/2004044790-d.html 907 $a.b13652540$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003232129707536 996 $aReliability of large systems$91213385 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gne $h0$i0
