SYSTEMS ENGINEERING
WITH ECONOMICS, PROBABILITY, AND STATISTICS, Second Edition
С
Jotin Khisty, Jamshid Mohammadi and Adjo A. Amekudzi
Ibis extensively revised comprehensive textbook, covering a wide range of topics, is suit¬
able for courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels, each with a different emphasis.
There is more than enough material to cover two semesters of an undergraduate course,
as well as a one semester graduate course. The pedagogy provides enough flexibility for
an instructor to teach the topics in systems engineering he or she would like. Systems
Engineering with Economics, Probability, and Statistics, Second Edition is sufficient¬
ly broad-based for undergraduate and graduate programs in various branches of engineer¬
ing and management.
KEY FEATURES
■
Includes a wide range of topics covering the fundamentals and practice applications
of probability and statistics (including advanced topics on statistical analysis and
testing and interpretation of engineering data), microeconomics, engineering
economics, hard systems (such as linear programming, decision analysis, CPM,
LOB, and PERT), soft systems analysis (such as Checkland s method), and
sustainable development and sustainability applications in engineering planning
■
Integrates the power of quantitative analysis, in a very concrete way, with the
conceptual richness of economics and systems thinking to deal with engineering
problems
■
Examples and end-of-chapter exercises drive home the fact that answers to
problems need not be merely optimal solutions, but must include value trade¬
offs and lend themselves to an enriched decision-making process, most suitable for
applications in an uncertain world
■
Includes a unique chapter on systems thinking
—
a first of its kind in a textbook
on systems engineering
—
and covers the most recent soft systems structuring
methods available in dealing with complexity, uncertainty, and conflict
■
Contains two new chapters: one on sustainable development, sustainability,
engineering and planning; and the other on case studies dealing with engineering
and planning for sustainability
■
WnĚ
material includes a solutions manual for those exercise problems that
require numerical solutions
