To realize the full potential of micro- and nanoscale devices in
system building, it is critical to develop systems engineering
methodologies that successfully integrate stand-alone, small-scale
technologies that can effectively interface with the macro world.
So how do we accomplish this? Systems Engineering for Microscale
and Nanoscale Technologies is perhaps the first handbook to
concentrate on the use of systems engineering at the micro and nano
levels. One major roadblock to this process is a generally limited
understanding of exactly how to apply systems engineering
principles and management processes to the integration of newer,
small-scale technologies. Focusing on this problem of consolidating
disciplines, contributors illustrate the interdependence between
nanotechnology and systems engineering, making it easier for
experts from these two distinct fields to understand and optimize
their application of the other. To help readers from these
different domains successfully combine heterogeneous, mixed-scale
elements, contributors assess the evolution of micro- and nanoscale
technology development and its impact on everything from laboratory
concepts to actualized products in health, automotive, aerospace,
communication, and many other fields. The book outlines new
approaches to developing smart systems. It also clarifies the
capabilities of micro- and nanotechnologies, including how they
interface with each other and with macro systems. Edited by highly
regarded technologists, this introductory resource includes
insightful contributions from leading minds in areas including
nanotechnology, physics, systems engineering, materials science,
chemistry, electrical engineering, and futurism, among others. The
result is a masterfully designed, interrelated collection of
multidisciplinary expertise to help readers optimize future
technologies. About the Editors:M. Ann Garrison Darrin is managing
executive of the Space Department at the Applied Physics Laboratory
at The Johns Hopkins University. Janet L. Barth is chief of the
Electrical Engineering Division (EED) at NASA's Goddard Space
Flight Center (GSFC).
