People Usually Speak of dependability as a whole and generally agree that more of it is a good thing. During the IEEE P982 working group’s research and discussions, we were intrigued by the idea of characterizing dependability as a single-number score derived from its constituent measurements (reliability, availability, supportability, and recoverability.) A dependability score could provide quantitative answers to significant questions such as: Has it changed over successive system versions? To what extent is system X more or less dependable than system Y?
人们通常将可靠性视为一个整体，并普遍认为可靠性越高越好。在 IEEE P982 工作组的研究和讨论过程中，我们被这样一个想法所吸引：将可信赖性表征为一个由其组成指标（可靠性、可用性、可支持性和可恢复性）得出的单一数字分数：在连续的系统版本中它是否发生了变化？在多大程度上 X 系统比 Y 系统更可靠或更不可靠？

Are you a reliability engineering professional who is interested in writing, editing, and reviewing standards? Then, the Reliability Society’s Standards Committee (RS-SC) is the place for you. The IEEE Reliability Society (RS) develops open consensus-based standards utilizing the standards development process established by the IEEE Standards Association (SA). The IEEE has developed standards for over a century. The SA’s standards development process has evolved over the past century, which now offers a balanced, fair, and open procedure. The SA standards development process has resulted in an active portfolio of over 900 completed standards, recommended practices, and guides (all are called “standards”). Six of these standards were developed by the RS-SC. These six IEEE RS-SC developed standards are:

Stakeholders of technology-oriented systems expect some level of reliability from them. IEEE defines Reliability as “the ability of a system or component to perform its required functions under stated conditions for specified period of time” [10]. One of the crucial factors in determining a system’s quality is based on how reliable it is. However, ensuring reliability is hard, especially for systems that are large and complex in nature. In this article, we introduce combinatorial testing and its use in developing highly reliable systems1

On 10 August 2023, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) voted to allow Cruise LLC to provide fared passenger services throughout San Francisco without a safety driver or time restrictions [1]. Ten years after the company was founded, Cruise seemed poised to spur the autonomous vehicle (AV) industry to turn the long-promised fleets of AVs into reality. Then, two major incidents occurred. On 19 August 2023, a Cruise vehicle collided with a San Francisco Fire Department truck that was responding to an emergency, injuring the rider inside the Cruise vehicle [2]. Two months later, a human-driven vehicle hit a pedestrian, knocking them into a Cruise AV’s path; the AV stopped near the pedestrian before restarting again, dragging her approximately 20 ft at low speed before parking on top of her leg [2]. Soon after, on 24 October 2023, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (CA DMV) indefinitely suspended Cruise’s AV deployment and driverless testing permits, stating that “the Department determines the manufacturer’s vehicles are not safe for the public’s operation” [3].
2023 年 8 月 10 日，加州公用事业委员会（CPUC）投票决定，允许 Cruise LLC 在旧金山全境提供自动驾驶客运服务，无需安全驾驶员或时间限制[1]。公司成立 10 年后，Cruise 似乎已经做好准备，推动自动驾驶汽车（AV）行业将承诺已久的 AV 车队变为现实。然后，两起重大事故发生了。2023 年 8 月 19 日，Cruise 的一辆车与旧金山消防局一辆正在处理紧急情况的卡车相撞，Cruise 车内的乘客受伤[2]。两个月后，一辆由人类驾驶的车辆撞上了一名行人，将其撞到了 Cruise AV 的行驶路线上；AV 在行人附近停下后再次启动，以低速将她拖行了约 20 英尺，然后停在了她的腿上[2]。不久之后，2023 年 10 月 24 日，加利福尼亚州机动车辆管理局（California Department of Motor Vehicles，CA DMV）无限期暂停了 Cruise 的 AV 部署和无人驾驶测试许可，称 "该局认定制造商的车辆对公众的操作不安全"[3]。

Software reliability increasingly become imperative in the digital world we live in. In our daily lives, we wake up in our houses that have some degree of smartness and automation, from monitoring systems for security or energy efficiency to devices we use every day, including cleaning robots, smart TVs, smartphones, to automated kitchen appliances. As we step outside, we use transportation systems, which have various degrees of automated capabilities, are connected to some cloud-based systems, are linked to the smart city, and are monitored by various devices and cameras for purposes like security, speed-limit control, or access control regulation. Also, digital systems record information about us, allowing for insights regarding every aspect of our lives, including our movements, health conditions, financial situation, and knowledge of our best friends, family members, or place of residence, among other aspects. Some working environments use robots and collaborative robots (cobots) to help production, like smart factories, but even the most manual and artisanal work is now making use of electronic devices to some extent.

The inspiration for this column comes from the enduring success and intellectual vigor of the IEEE Conference on Prognostics and Health Management (ICPHM) with the distinguished support of the IEEE Reliability Society. With prognostics and health management (PHM) at the intersection of various interdisciplinary pathways, our mission is to forge a vibrant hub of dialog, blending academic rigor with engineering beauty and strategic management. Each edition is an open call to the PHM community to share their expertise and narratives, contributing to our society’s collective wisdom. We are committed to creating a conducive atmosphere for networking, sparking innovative collaborations, and strengthening communal ties. As we navigate through the intricacies of PHM within the context of Industry 4.0/5.0, this column is not merely a reflection of current practices but a beacon guiding us toward a future where the symbiosis of machines and analytics transforms the industrial paradigm.

The ability to efficiently share information has both commercial and societal benefits—even more so when the data can be shared outside of a host organization. For example, improved data sharing between medical providers that are not in the same network will enhance patient care [1] as well as reduce costs by sharing data and minimizing redundant testing.
