The Annual Reliability and Maintainability Symposium
"Reliability, the Key to a Better Bottom Line"
Rosen Shingle Creek Resort
Orlando, Florida
January 28-31, 2013
www.rams.org
Extended deadline: Abstracts due April 30!
We invite you to share your research - theoretical or practical, success stories, lessons learned, R&M knowledge, and R&M discoveries at the 2013 RAMS® in Orlando. Tell us how you are contributing to improving the bottom line by applying reliability and maintainability concepts. Tell us how you are using reliability and maintainability in other pursuits. RAMS® is the premier forum for sharing your experience, knowledge, and roadmaps to success. Make your contribution to the advancement of the R&M discipline and enjoy in the rich exchange of ideas and solutions. We want you to contribute your unique experience to our synergistic symposium sponsored by nine professional societies. Plan to submit your paper or tutorial now.
Papers are the medium to advance the state-of-the-art and will be published in the Proceedings and a short technical presentation with discussion period (approximately one-half hour) will be given for each paper at the Symposium. It is the policy of RAMS® to publish all papers presented at RAMS® in IEEE Xplore. Tutorials provide fundamental exposure to topics ranging from introductory through intermediate to advanced. They are presented in two-hour in-depth sessions at the Symposium. Examples of the most recent written papers and tutorials are available in the 2012 Proceedings and the 2012 Tutorial Notes. The process for presenting a paper or tutorial at 2013 RAMS® begins with your submission of an abstract. Your submittal should address topics related to reliability and maintainability that are relevant to our theme, e.g.:
Accelerated Life Testing R&M Applications in Infrastructure Management
Business Process Improvement R&M Applications in Manufacturing
Economic Models for R&M R&M Applications in Service
Equipment Diagnostics and Prognostics R&M Management
FMEA Reliability Modeling
Fault Tree Analysis Repairable Systems Modeling
