• Book Published

Michael Hamada (CCS-6) and former LANL Statistical Sciences Group members Alyson Wilson (Iowa State University), C. Shane Reese (Brigham Young University), and Harry Martz (retired, LANL) have published a book, Bayesian Reliability, that presents modern methods and techniques for analyzing reliability data from a Bayesian perspective. The use of Bayesian methods has increased in recent years due to the availability of simulation-based computational tools for implementation. This book focuses on the assessment of reliability of components and systems, making use of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms for implementation. Dr. Hamada is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, winner of the 2008 Wilcoxon Prize for the best practical application paper in Technometrics, and winner of numerous technology awards including the prestigious R&D 100 Award.
