Presents the origins and evolution of the systems engineering
discipline and helps readers gain a personal familiarity with
systems engineering experts: their experience, opinions and
attitudes in this field This book is based on a qualitative study
that includes dozens of in-depth interviews with experts in the
systems engineering field. This book is broken into three main
parts. The first part is a general overview of the systems
engineering field. The second part discusses the changes the
systems engineering discipline has undergone with the analysis as
case studies of two significant Israeli defence systems projects:
the IAI Lavi project and the Iron Dome project. The third part of
this book contains interviews with renowned experts in the systems
engineering field. This part is divided into five sections: systems
engineering as the answer to the challenges of a complex
technological world the aerospace industries; the development of
systems engineering in the commercial and industrial worlds, and in
complex civil systems; the impact of the accelerated development of
the computing world on systems engineering processes; systems
engineering and the academic world; and systems engineering in the
world of training and consulting. This book presents the main
insights derived from the interviews, and an analysis and
discussion of the question of the relevance of systems engineering
to the management world. Some highlights of this book are that it *
Integrates the technological aspects with the behavioural aspects
of the field * Serves managerial needs of engineering and
management in general, so managers with no technical background can
derive knowledge from this book * Provides approaches for seeing
beyond technology-understanding the mission Managing and
Engineering Complex Technological Systems is a great resource on
management for managers as well as systems engineers.
