REC2014

The organization of REC2014 in Chicago will help to cater to the growing global interest in Reliable Engineering Computing. REC2014 is focusing on providing solutions for reliability and computational issues in infrastructural systems. From a perspective of infrastructure system performance, many infrastructures worldwide are approaching the end of their design life, and require repair or replacement. Therefore, there is a crucial need for design/decision making methodologies and protocols that will assure maintaining the safe operation of infrastructures. These methods will assist practicing engineers to decide whether to repair or replace an infrastructure system. Moreover, they can be used to perform the cost analysis for construction and maintenance of structural systems.
