Quotations
112 ;;Quote: diversity increases reliability only if systems are redundant, failures are independent, diversity is deep, and alternatives interoperate smoothly
112 ;;Quote: computer systems exhibit little redundancy; for example, redundant tax systems would help only if they implement exactly the same rules
112 ;;Quote: interconnected, computer-based systems are not independent; failures in one system can cause problems for other systems
