Conference Program
The Scientific Program of the Conference will consist of various type of
papers and presentations:
- Invited Lectures
- Technical Papers
The scientific Program will also include Organized Sessions and Mini Symposia
devoted to innovative applications of significant reliability principles:
they are organized by IASSAR Committees as well as by researchers interested
in debating special themes.
