Book Description
By finelybook
This translation brings a landmark systems engineering (SE) book to English-speaking audiences for the first time since its original publication in 1972. For decades the SE concept championed by this book has helped engineers solve a wide variety of issues by emphasizing a top-down approach. Moving from the general to the specific,this SE concept has situated itself as uniquely appealing to both highly trained experts and anybody managing a complex project. Until now,this SE concept has only been available to German speakers. By shedding the overtly technical approach adopted by many other SE methods,this book can be used as a problem-solving guide in a great variety of disciplines,engineering and otherwise.
By segmenting the book into separate parts that build upon each other,the SE concept’s accessibility is reinforced. The basic principles of SE,problem solving,and systems design are helpfully introduced in the first three parts. Once the fundamentals are presented,specific case studies are covered in the fourth part to display potential applications. Then part five offers further suggestions on how to effectively practice SE principles; for example,it not only points out frequent stumbling blocks,but also the specific points at which they may appear. In the final part,a wealth of different methods and tools,such as optimization techniques,are given to help maximize the potential use of this SE concept.
Engineers and engineering students from all disciplines will find this book extremely helpful in solving complex problems. Because of its practicable lessons in problem-solving,any professional facing a complex project will also find much to learn from this volume.
