Essential Architecture and Principles of Systems Engineering

Essential Architecture and Principles of Systems Engineering

This book is for everyone interested in systems and the modern practice of engineering. The revolution in engineering and systems that has occurred over the past decade has led to an expansive advancement of systems engineering tools and languages. A new age of information-intensive complex systems has arrived with new challenges in a global business market. Science and information technology must now converge into a cohesive multidisciplinary approach to the engineering of systems if products and services are to be useful and competitive. For the non-specialist and even for practicing engineers the subject of systems engineering remains cloaked in jargon and a sense of mystery. This need not be the case for any reader of this book and for students no matter what their background is. The concepts of architecture and systems engineering put forth are simple and intuitive. Readers and students of engineering will be guided to an understanding of the fundamental principles of architecture and systems and how to put them into engineering practice. This book offers a practical perspective that is reflected in case studies of real-world systems that are motivated by tutorial examples. The book embodies a decade of research and very successful academic instruction to postgraduate students that include practicing engineers. The material has been continuously improved and evolved from its basis in defence and aerospace towards the engineering of commercial systems with an emphasis on speed and efficiency. Most recently the concepts processes and methods in this book have been applied to the commercialisation of wireless charging for electric vehicles. As a postgraduate or professional development course of study this book will lead you into the modern practice of engineering in the twenty-first century. Much more than a textbook though Essential Architecture and Principles of Systems Engineering challenges readers and students alike to think about the world differently while providing them a useful reference book with practical insights for exploiting the power of architecture and systems.

Design of Enterprise Systems Theory Architecture and Methods

Design of Enterprise Systems Theory Architecture and Methods

In practice many different people with backgrounds in many different disciplines contribute to the design of an enterprise. Anyone who makes decisions to change the current enterprise to achieve some preferred structure is considered a designer. What is problematic is how to use the knowledge of separate aspects of the enterprise to achieve a globally optimized enterprise. The synthesis of knowledge from many disciplines to design an enterprise defines the field of enterprise engineering. Because enterprise systems are exceedingly complex encompassing many independent domains of study students must first be taught how to think about enterprise systems. Specifically written for advanced and intermediate courses and modules Design of Enterprise Systems: Theory Architecture and Methods takes a system-theoretical perspective of the enterprise. It describes a systematic approach called the enterprise design method to design the enterprise. The design method demonstrates the principles models methods and tools needed to design enterprise systems. The author uses the enterprise system design methodology to organize the chapters to mimic the completion of an actual project. Thus the book details the enterprise engineering process from initial conceptualization of an enterprise to its final design. Pedagogical tools available include: For instructors: PowerPoint® slides for each chapter Project case studies that can be assigned as long-term projects to accompany the text Quiz questions for each chapter Business Process Analyzer software available for download For students: Templates checklists forms and models to support enterprise engineering activities The book fills a need for greater design content in engineering curricula by describing how to design enterprise systems. Inclusion of design is also critical for business students since they must realize the import their decisions may have on the long-term design of the enterprises they work with. The book’s practical focus and project-based approach coupled with the pedagogical tools gives students the knowledge and skills they need to lead enterprise engineering projects. | Design of Enterprise Systems Theory Architecture and Methods

Computer Architecture Fundamentals and Principles of Computer Design Second Edition

Computer Architecture Fundamentals and Principles of Computer Design Second Edition

Not only does almost everyone in the civilized world use a personal computer smartphone and/or tablet on a daily basis to communicate with others and access information but virtually every other modern appliance vehicle or other device has one or more computers embedded inside it. One cannot purchase a current-model automobile for example without several computers on board to do everything from monitoring exhaust emissions to operating the anti-lock brakes to telling the transmission when to shift and so on. Appliances such as clothes washers and dryers microwave ovens refrigerators etc. are almost all digitally controlled. Gaming consoles like Xbox PlayStation and Wii are powerful computer systems with enhanced capabilities for user interaction. Computers are everywhere even when we don’t see them as such and it is more important than ever for students who will soon enter the workforce to understand how they work. This book is completely updated and revised for a one-semester upper level undergraduate course in Computer Architecture and suitable for use in an undergraduate CS EE or CE curriculum at the junior or senior level. Students should have had a course(s) covering introductory topics in digital logic and computer organization. While this is not a text for a programming course the reader should be familiar with computer programming concepts in at least one language such as C C++ or Java. Previous courses in operating systems assembly language and/or systems programming would be helpful but are not essential. | Computer Architecture Fundamentals and Principles of Computer Design Second Edition

Moving Loads – Dynamic Analysis and Identification Techniques Structures and Infrastructures Book Series Vol. 8

Moving Loads – Dynamic Analysis and Identification Techniques Structures and Infrastructures Book Series Vol. 8

The interaction phenomenon is very common between different components of a mechanical system. It is a natural phenomenon and is found with the impact force in aircraft landing; the estimation of degree of ripeness of an apple from impact on a beam; the interaction of the magnetic head of a computer disk leading to miniature development of modern computer; etc. Uncertainty in some of them would lead to inaccurate analysis results on the behavior of the structure. The interaction force is difficult to measure unless instruments have been installed during construction for this purpose. Some of the interaction problems are difficult to quantify due to the lack of thorough knowledge on the interaction behavior. Analytical skills are required to estimate the interaction forces of the mechanical system in order to enable advanced developments in different areas of modern technology. This volume provides a comprehensive treatment on this topic with the vehicle-bridge system for an illustration of the moving load problem. It covers a whole range of topics including mathematical concepts of the moving load problems with continuous beams and plates vehicle-bridge interaction dynamics weigh-in-motion techniques moving load identification algorithms in the frequency-time domain in the time domain and in the state space domain techniques based on the generalized orthogonal function expansion and on the finite element formulation. The methods and algorithms can be implemented for on-line identification of the interaction forces. This book is intended for structural engineers and advanced students who wish to explore the benefit of interaction phenomenon and techniques for identification of such interaction forces. It is also recommended for researchers and decision makers working on the operation and maintenance of major infrastructures and engineering facilities. | Moving Loads – Dynamic Analysis and Identification Techniques Structures and Infrastructures Book Series Vol. 8
