Book description
Organized in three parts, this textbook covers systems and systems engineering concepts, systems methods, models and analytical techniques, systems management and control methods. Traditional engineering books are either too technical or not technical at all. This book will not only give students exposure to the concepts of systems and systems engineering, but will also provide enough technical expertise for them to use and apply what they learn in their careers right away.
