Based on a popular course taught by the late Gian-Carlo Rota of MIT, with many new topics covered as well, Introduction to Probability with R presents R programs and animations to provide an intuitive yet rigorous understanding of how to model natural phenomena from a probabilistic point of view.
Using a wide range of operational research (OR) optimization examples, Applied Operational Research with SAS demonstrates how the OR procedures in SAS work.
Manufacturing plays a vital role in European economy and society, and is expected to continue as a major generator of wealth in the foreseeable future.
In this dynamic review and synthesis of empirical research and theoretical discussion of design as cognitive activity, Willemien Visser reconciles and integrates the classical view of design, as conceptualized by Herbert Simon's symbolic information processing approach, with modern views of design such as the situativity approach, as formulated by Donald Schon.
The application of engineering principles in divergent fields such as management science and communications as well as the advancement of several approaches in theory and computation have led to growing interest in queueing models, creating the need for a comprehensive text.
In a presentation that formalizes what makes up decision based design, Decision Based Design defines the major concepts that go into product realization.
This book introduces the systematic design process for product and engineering design projects by adopting a design model and the use of several design methods.
If there is any one element to the engineering of service systems that is unique, it is the extent to which the suitability of the system for human use, human service, and excellent human experience has been and must always be considered.
With the increase of globalization of business and industry, IT products and services are produced and marketed across geographical cultural boundaries without any consideration of culture.
