Abstract: We extend the definition of analytic and Reidemeister torsion from closed compact Riemannian manifolds to compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary $(M,partialM)$, given a flat bundle $CalF$ of $CalA$-Hilbert modules of finite type and a decomposition of the boundary $partialM=partia{l}_{-}Mcuppartia{l}_{+}M$ into disjoint components. In particular we extend the $L-2$ analytic and Reidemeister torsions to compact manifolds with boundary. If the system $(M,partia{l}_{-}M,partia{l}_{+}M,CalF)$ is of determinant class we compute the quotient of the analytic and the Reidemeister torsion and prove glueing formulas for both of them. In particular we answer positively Conjecture 7.6 in [LL]
