Abstract

Over the last decades maintenance management has evolved from a somewhat neglected function into a full-fledged business function in the industry as well as in the service sector.This book provides a structured approach to maintenance management. It covers maintenance strategy decisions, resource management, assessment system design, etc. Decision support models and tools in these areas are discussed from the theoretical point of view and illustrated by numerous examples and case studies.Due to its concept the book can be interesting for students as well as practitioners.This book is the successor of Maintenance Management (2000), which gave an introduction in the field.

Abstract

This book defends the view that any adequate account of rational decision making must take a decision maker's beliefs about causal relations into account. The early chapters of the book introduce the non-specialist to the rudiments of expected utility theory. The major technical advance offered by the book is a 'representation theorem' that shows that both causal decision theory and its main rival, Richard Jeffrey's logic of decision, are both instances of a more general conditional decision theory. The book solves a long-standing problem for Jeffrey's theory by showing for the first time how to obtain a unique utility and probability representation for preferences and judgements of comparative likelihood. The book also contains a major new discussion of what it means to suppose that some event occurs or that some proposition is true. The most complete and robust defence of causal decision theory available.
