Metrics and Case Studies for Evaluating Engineering Designs
by Jay Alan Moody, William L. Chapman, F. David Van Voorhees, and Et Al
Metrics and Case Studies for Evaluating Engineering Designs considers four principal metrics for system design: . Design Difficulty - Some projects do not immediately reveal their complexity. Taking some time to assess the true intricacy of each situation at the outset allows you to plan appropriately from the beginning. Required Resources - An accurate understanding of the materials and personnel needed to fulfill your goals is another keystone of good planning. Systems Engineering Efficacy - A...

Reengineering Systems Integration Success (1997) (CRC Press Revivals)
Reengineering is using information technology to improved performance and cut costs. Its main premise is to examine the goals of an organization and redesign work and business processes from the ground up rather than to simply automate existing tasks and functions. Reengineering is driven by open markets and competition. It is part of responding to a global economy where worldwide customers are more sophisticated and demanding. Defining and executing a systems integration process is a challengin...

Image Processing of Edge and Surface Defects (Springer Series in Materials Science, #123)
by Roman Louban
The human ability to recognize objects on various backgrounds is amazing. Many times, industrial image processing tried to imitate this ability by its own techniques. This book discusses the recognition of defects on free-form edges and - homogeneous surfaces. My many years of experience has shown that such a task can be solved e?ciently only under particular conditions. Inevitably, the following questions must be answered: How did the defect come about? How and why is a person able to recognize...
