Samenvatting	A Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) is a visual representation of a system's architecture that models how component reliabilities combine to determine overall system reliability. Each block represents a component or subsystem with a known reliability (probability of functioning without failure), and connections between blocks represent functional relationships (series, parallel, or mixed). RBD analysis is a fundamental tool in reliability engineering, used to identify critical components, optimize redundancy, and predict system-level failure rates.	Assembly Line Balancing is the problem of distributing a sequence of assembly tasks across a series of workstations on a production line such that work is evenly distributed, idle time is minimized, and throughput constraints are satisfied. The goal is to assign tasks to stations such that the total work time at each station is as equal as possible, optimizing for production rate (cycle time) and resource utilization. This is a classic optimization problem in manufacturing, solved through heuristic and exact algorithms, essential to the efficiency of mass production systems.
