Handbook of Industrial Engineering, 2nd Edition. Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.Handbook of Industrial Engineering, 2nd Edition

Covering the entire field of industrial engineering, this book is divided into four sections: technology; human dimensions; planning, design and control; and quantitative methods for decision-making. The text deals with each section separately, showing how the practice of industrial engineering capitalizes on the effective integration of these four components into an effective systems function. New material covered in this revised edition includes chapters on information technology, computer-integrated business, service technology and quality, and product planning.
