Reliability engineering: Old problems and new challenges
E Zio - Reliability engineering & system safety, 2009 - Elsevier
The first recorded usage of the word reliability dates back to the 1800s, albeit referred to a
person and not a technical system. Since then, the concept of reliability has become a …
