This article describes the state-of-the-art methods available for systems reliability assessment. The significant contributions made to those methods in common use for the analysis of industrial systems are identified. The article reviews the developments in engineering systems that are likely to occur over the next decade that will challenge the current capability in this field and the potential advances that may result. A discussion is also provided of novel uses that will become possible due to the advances made in the assessment techniques over this period.

Robustness Assessment

Robustness is the degree to which a certain system or component can operate correctly in the presence of invalid inputs or stressful environmental conditions. With the increasing complexity and widespread use of computer systems, obtaining assurances regarding their robustness has become of vital importance. This survey discusses the state of the art on software robustness assessment, with emphasis on key aspects like types of systems being evaluated, assessment techniques used, the target of the techniques, the types of faults used, and how system behavior is classified. The survey concludes with the identification of gaps and open challenges related with robustness assessment.

Molecular Skeleton

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.
