The 13th International Conference on Mathematical Methods in Reliability (MMR 2025) took take place on June 23-27, 2025, in the beautiful city of Viña del Mar, Chile.

For almost 30 years, the MMR conferences have served as a forum for discussing fundamental issues on mathematical methods in reliability theory and its applications. It brings together reliability engineers in various fields, quality and safety experts, statisticians, mathematicians and data scientists, with a central focus on reliability. As a major international forum on reliability, it attracts an increasing number of researchers from many different countries from all continents.

Previous versions have been held in Murcia, Spain (2023), Hong Kong, China (2019), Grenoble, France (2017), and Tokyo, Japan (2015). 

This 13th version of the conference took place at the Viña del Mar campus of Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez [here's a video for students of our campus], right next to the colorful and eclectic city port of Valparaíso — a must-visit for all visitors and travelers in Chile, [see here a video by foreign travelers].
