This book addresses reliability, maintenance, risk, and safety issues of industrial systems with applications of the latest decision-making techniques. Thus, this book presents chapters that apply advanced tools, techniques, and computing models for optimizing the performance of industrial and manufacturing systems, along with other complex engineering equipment. Computing techniques like data analytics, failure mode and effects analysis, fuzzy set theory, petri-net, multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM), and soft computing are used for solving problems of reliability, risk, and safety...

This volume continues to highlight the latest research contributions presented at the annual Wroclaw conference in Finance (Poland), covering a wide range of topics in the field. The chapters reflect the extent, diversity, and richness of research areas, and discuss both fundamental and applied finance. A detailed analysis of current financial-market problems including specifics of Polish and Central European markets is also part of this volume. Selected chapters also examine the results of advanced financial modeling. These proceedings are a valuable resource for researchers in...

In 1975, the U.S. Securities Acts Amendments were enacted by Congress, which amongst other measures, officially mandated development of a National Market System (NMS). Since that time, the competitive map has been redrawn, technological changes have been huge and pervasive in scope, and the landscape is ever-changing. This book looks at the evolution of NMS and the factors that have influenced it since its development. Titled after the Baruch College Financial Markets Conference, 40 Years of Experience with the National Market System (NMS): Who Are the Winners and What Have We...

This textbook deals with engineering, science, technical, legal, financial, ICT, logistics and people management topics necessary for managing engineered assets such as all man-made tools, gadgets, buildings, equipment, machines, infrastructure, large-scale physical and industrial facilities and systems which pervade all sectors of industry. By coalescing concepts, principles, practices, and practical issues from the relevant multi-disciplines, the book addresses the body of knowledge required for managing engineered assets in the 4IR and Society 5.0 era and beyond.

The book is...

Im Fokus dieses Buches steht die quantitative Modellierung und statistische Messung von Ereignisrisiken: Es werden statistische Schätzverfahren zur Quantifizierung von Ereignisrisiken und statistische Testverfahren zum Einsatz im Rahmen der Risikokontrolle präsentiert.

Kapitelweise werden die wichtigsten Risikomaßzahlen verbal eingeführt, formal definiert, im Rahmen kurzer Beispiele für verschiedene stochastische Modelle berechnet und anschließend im Kontext verschiedener Datensituationen statistisch geschätzt. Die geschätzten Werte werden um Genauigkeitsangaben ergänzt....
