Completely revised and updated, this book is a practical guide for anyone involved at any level of the development and quality assurance of software programs for healthcare products, particularly in t

Engineering and Product Development Management is a practical guide to the components of engineering management, using a holistic approach. It will help engineers and managers understand what they have to do to improve the product development process by deploying new technology and new methods of working in concurrent teams. The book takes elements from six well known and understood bodies of knowledge and integrates them into a holistic approach: integrated product development, project management, process management, systems engineering, product data management, and organizational change management. These elements are framed within an overall enterprise-wide architecture. The techniques discussed in this book work for both huge multinational organizations and smaller enterprises. The emphasis throughout is on practical tools which will be invaluable for engineers, managers, and consultants responsible for project and product development.

"Project-Based Software Engineering" is the first book to provide hands-on process and practice in software engineering essentials for the beginner. The book presents steps through the software develo

In the first chapter of this in-depth work, Otto (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and Wood (U. of Texas at Austin) discuss the foundation material of product design, including their philosophy

Ivar Jacobson, one of the Three Amigos of Rational, follows his fellow amigos, Grady Booch and James Rumbaugh, with the publication of The Road to the Unified Software Development Process, his own collection of the best of his work. Together with Stefan Bylund, Dr Jacobson has gathered the best of his articles from Object Magazine, JOOP, and ROAD, and updated them to reflect current trends in the industry. This book not only presents the best of his work, but it also tracks the development of the new Unified Software Development Process. This book is an excellent reference for software professionals who are interested in analysis and design. It provides real-world experience in developing quality software through disciplined engineering.

Few books on software project management have been as influential and timeless as The Mythical Man-Month. With a blend of software engineering facts and thought-provoking opinions, Fred Brooks offers

Sustainability for Engineering and Science provides a comprehensive overview of sustainability issues related to the built environment and in line with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda. It presents a broad interdisciplinary coverage of topics by instructors from Sapienza University of Rome, covering energy transition, sustainable use of resources and circular economy, sustainable mobility, hydroclimatology and water cycle sustainability, ecology and ecosystem services and the related legal framework. By presenting a compendium of themes in an introductory but technically exact way, this challenges students to recognise their interrelation and demonstrates the need for specialists to work in the overarching context.
