Description
Book SynopsisFor the past several decades, systems engineering has grown rapidly in its scope and application and shown significant benefits for the design of large, complex systems. However, current systems engineering textbooks are either too technical or at a high conceptual level. Written by an expert with more than ten years of teaching experience, Systems Engineering: Design Principles and Models not only gives students exposure to the concepts of systems and systems engineering, but also provides enough technical expertise for them to immediately use and apply what they learn.
The book covers systems and systems engineering, systems methods, models, and analytical techniques as well as systems management and control methods. It discusses systems concepts, emphasizing system life cycle, and includes coverage of systems design processes and the major activities involved. It offers hands-on exercises after each chapter, giving students a solid understanding of system requiremen
Trade Review
"… if you have this book you don’t really need to consult other resources unless you want to go into depth on a particular subject. This is a great reference book."
—Dr. John E. Deaton, Florida Institute of Technology
"…good hands-on reading material to the domain of systems engineering. It is also very good to be used as a textbook."
—Wei Zhang, Tsinghua University
