Final Call for papers
for the
4th Workshop on Reliable Engineering Computing (REC2010)
"Robust Design - Coping with Hazards, Risk and Uncertainty"
March 3-5, 2010 | Singapore
http://www.eng.nus.edu.sg/civil/REC2010/index.cfm

REC2010 is focused on robust design in the context of hazards, risk and
uncertainty. Industry and academia are invited to contribute and to join
in the
discussions on needs and developments in the field.

This workshop is unique in combining computer science, mathematics, and
engineering analysis and design to discuss the reliability of
engineering
computations, providing a common forum by which to continue
cross-disciplinary
advisements in the field.

Participants are expected to submit papers that will be published in the

workshop proceedings and also will be available online from the workshop
web
site. After the workshop, selected papers will be published in a special
issue(s)
of a selected journal. The papers will go through the normal refereeing
process.
Topics include but are not limited to:
- robust design, reliability-based design, performance-based design
- risk analysis, hazard analysis, risk and hazard mitigation
- management and processing of uncertainties
Herein, design is understood in a broad sense and may concern, e.g.:
- structures
- systems
- processes
- algorithms
Methods and theories may include, e.g.:
- traditional statistics and probability theory
- Bayesian theory
- imprecise probabilities
- evidence theory
- p-box approach
- fuzzy probability theory
- interval analysis
- fuzzy set theory
- convex modeling
- information gap theory

Contributions are invited with emphasis on both theory and applications.
