Systems such as satellites, airplanes, cars and air traffic controls are becoming more and more complex and/or highly integrated. These systems integrate several technologies inside themselves, and must be able to work in very demanding environments, sometimes with few, or none, maintenance services, because of their severe conditions of work. To survive to such severe work conditions, the systems must present high levels of reliability, which are achieved through different approaches and processes. Therefore, it is necessary that the processes of decision analysis and making are progressively improved, taking into account experiences collected before by several technological communities, and then propose efficient modifications in the local processes. These experiences influence the proposition and improvement of several Reliability Standards Series taken by four different approaches and several technological communities.
