Abstract :
Problems in reconciling the outlooks of the economist and the reliability specialist are discussed with emphasis upon the issue of ``quantification´´ for analytical purposes. The approach to reliability and quality issues through economic motivations is viewed as constructive for industries as well as for nations, making the long-term reliability requirements appear even more necessary than those experienced thus far.
