Abstract:
This thesis presents and analyses a solution to the problem of formally re- engineering program data structures, allowing new representations of a program to be developed. The work is based around Ward's theory of program transformations which uses a Wide Spectrum Language, WSL, whose semantics were specially developed for use in proof of program transformations. The re-engineered code exhibits equivalent functionality to the original but differs in the degree of data abstraction and representation. Previous transformational re-engineering work has concentrated upon control flow restructuring,

Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) started a new chapter in the history of preventive maintenance strategy setting. It was now possible to develop a scientifically based, highly successful maintenance program for complex systems. It developed as a result of the reliability problems and cost of maintenance of aircraft during the late 50’s and early 60’s. The result was a methodology called MSG-1, followed by the improved MSG-2. When MSG-2 was used contractually for the United States Department of Defence, it led to the present definition of RCM.

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with modelling inspection policies of facilities which Qraduallv deteriorate in time. The context of inspection policies lends itself readily to probabilistic modelling. Indeed, many of the published theoretical models to be found in the literature adopt a Markov approach, where states are usually 'operating', 'operating but fault present', and 'failed'. However, most of these models fail to discuss the 'fit' of the model to data,a nd virtually no exampleso f actual applications or case-studiesa re to be found. hi a series of recent papers dating from 1984, a robust ap

Abstract:
Maintenance models are critical for evaluation of the alternative maintenance policies for modern engineering systems. A poorly selected policy can result in excessive life-cycle costs as well as unnecessary risks for catastrophic failures of the system. Economic dependence refers to the difference between the cost of combining the maintenance of a number of components and the cost of performing the same maintenance actions individually. Maintenance that takes advantage of this difference is often called opportunistic. Large number of components and economic inter-dependence are two pervasive

Abstract:
<p> Industry 4.0 is changing the manufacturing environment with its cyber-physical infrastructure to support and help increase production performance. The cyber-physical infrastructure brings new technologies such as Internet of Things, big data, cloud computing, and machine learning using advanced algorithms. To deal with this new order to preserve asset performance, industrial maintenance needs to be prepared. This study aims to understand the impact of Industry 4.0 on the skills required within industrial maintenance departments. A survey of industrial maintenance professionals finds that t
