System Maintenance: Trends in Management and Technology

Modern day systems are large, complex and automated. The high demands on the performance of such systems has created a need for new management and engineering solutions in the area of the maintenance of the complex systems. This need is mainly motivated by the steeply increasing cost of downtime. This chapter presents an overview of the recent trends in management of maintenance function and maintenance technology.
