Access a wide range of tools and techniques with the Handbook of Industrial and Systems Engineering
Responding to the demand by researchers and practitioners for a comprehensive reference, the Handbook of Industrial and Systems Engineering offers full and easy access to a wide range of industrial and systems engineering tools and techniques in a concise format. Providing state-of-the-art coverage from more than 40 contributing authors, many of whom are "rising stars" in this area, this volume emphasizes systems engineering aspects and expands beyond the topics found in the existing references in this field.
- Provides a comprehensive yet concise and easy-to-use guide to a wide
range of industrial and systems tools and technologies
- Integrates quantitative models, qualitative principles, and computer
techniques
- Presents many of the newer authors in the field, offering fresh (and
possibly revolutionary) perspectives
This handbook is a one-stop source for industrial and systems engineering. It introduces new technologies, offers a systems integration approach, and provides coverage of information engineering. Part I delivers a general introduction featuring references to the origin of industrial engineering and its ties to the Industrial Revolution. Parts II and III cover the fundamentals of industrial and systems engineering. Part IV contains chapters on manufacturing and production systems, while part V addresses new technologies. The book concludes with general applications of both industrial and systems engineering. 768 pp.
