Riassunto:

The trusted handbook—now in a new edition

This newly revised handbook presents a multifaceted view ofsystems engineering from process and systems managementperspectives. It begins with a comprehensive introduction to thesubject and provides a brief overview of the thirty-four chaptersthat follow. This introductory chapter is intended to serve as a"field guide" that indicates why, when, and how to use the materialthat follows in the handbook.

Topical coverage includes: systems engineering life cycles andmanagement; risk management; discovering system requirements;configuration management; cost management; total qualitymanagement; reliability, maintainability, and availability;concurrent engineering; standards in systems engineering; systemarchitectures; systems design; systems integration; systematicmeasurements; human supervisory control; managing organizationaland individual decision-making; systems reengineering; projectplanning; human systems integration; information technology andknowledge management; and more.

The handbook is written and edited for systems engineers inindustry and government, and to serve as a university referencehandbook in systems engineering and management courses. By focusingon systems engineering processes and systems management, theeditors have produced a long-lasting handbook that will make adifference in the design of systems of all types that are large inscale and/or scope.
