题 目：System Resilience: A National Level Performance Measure
主讲人：Loon Ching Tang（董润桢）新加坡国立大学教授、新加坡工程院院士
主持人：杜刚 经济与管理学院数字工商与管理科学系教授
内容简介：Recent global events had triggered major disruptions to global supply chains and critical infrastructural systems and it is increasingly evident that we need to look beyond traditional reliability and risk to develop resilience as a better systems’ performance measure. Here, we present a unifying framework for defining and measuring resilience. We then present a family of recovery functions of which the associated parameters are related to the key characteristics of resilience. It is then shown through examples from supply chain and power grid disruptions that the parameters of these functions can be used to form a set of resilience indices which are useful for benchmarking resilience. We then discuss the importance of designing the concept of operations for enhancing system resilience using emergency response as an illustrative example.
