The 6th International Symposium on Reliability Engineering and Risk Management (ISRERM) will be held in the UTown located in the National University of Singapore from 31 May to 01 Jun 2018. The theme for ISRERM 2018 is Resilience and Sustainability of Urban Systems and the symposium aims to stimulate discussions on how resilient and cost-effective solutions could be developed to reduce these vulnerabilities by making our complex systems and networks, and specifically our infrastructure, resilient at a minimum level of risk proneness. The goal is not to preserve existing systems, but to preserve and even enhance critical functions, after an expected or unexpected disturbance. Making critical infrastructures resilient is particularly critical to high-technology financial and economic hubs, where failure consequences can be particularly severe.
