Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This issue aims at covering all the aspects related to system reliability and predictive maintenance in industrial engineering.
In today's highly dynamic market, companies are increasingly interested in achieving operational excellence by optimizing the performance of physical assets. An essential element for the achievement of this objective is the guarantee of high levels of asset reliability and availability, which can exploit the potential offered by the technological evolution on ICTs and system automation. In fact, the widespread presence of sensors and monitoring systems in industrial plants, coupled with analytics tools based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, makes it possible for decision-makers to have real-time data on operating conditions, performance and safety of their assets and advanced forecasting support for more efficient maintenance decisions.
This Special Issue wants to share the experience of industrial engineers, both from industry and academia, and discuss the state of the art about approach, methods, tools and techniques on systems reliability and predictive maintenance.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
