This book discusses asset life-cycle management, especially, human dimensions on the management of infrastructure and industry-sector assets. 

The book explores advances decision support systems based on the applications of Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), machine learning, and digital twinning for monitoring, diagnostics, prognostics. It includes methodologies and cases applied to different operational contexts. 

The book also considers the implications of the applications of international standards, local regulations and industry guidelines to risk and resilience engineering asset operations.
