Research and Markets: The Latest Handbook of Systems Engineering and Management is Available Today

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/60199f/handbook_of_system) has
announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new report "Handbook of
Systems Engineering and Management, 2nd Edition" to their offering.

The handbook is written and edited for systems engineers in industry and
government, and to serve as a university reference handbook in systems
engineering and management. It is primarily focused on systems engineering and
systems management for fielding systems of all types, especially systems that
are information technology and software intensive and which involve human and
organizational elements. By focusing on systems engineering processes and
systems management, the editors will continue to produce a long lasting handbook
that will make a difference in the design of systems of all types that are large
in scale and/or scope.
