Dr. Jyoti Anand, Assistant Professor, Department of Applied Sciences & Humanities DCE, Gurgaon also presented her accepted research paper titled “Comparative Study of Reliability Models with different discipline in Repair and Up-gradation of the Components”. The objective of the paper was to analyze the comparison between two reliability models under different discipline in Repair and Up-gradation of the components. Hence the study reveals that, in which priority to the up-gradation of s/w over repair of h/w components in the unit under inspection is not much economical beneficial as compared to the model in which priority to the s/w up-gradation over repair of h/w component done immediately without getting inspection”.

Evening session was started with the invited talk delivered by Prof. Hare Krishana, Deptt. of Statistics, Ch. Charan Singh University, Meerut on the topic “Random Censoring with Different Survival and Censoring Time Distributions” and Prof. Narinder Kumar, Deptt.
