Editat de Shimon Y. Nof
en Limba Engleză Mixed media product – 23 iul 2009
Automation is undergoing a major transformation in scope and dimension and plays an increasingly important role in the global economy and in our daily lives. Engineers combine automated devices with mathematical and organizational tools to create complex systems for a rapidly expanding range of applications and human activities. This handbook incorporates these new developments and presents a widespread and well-structured conglomeration of new emerging application areas of automation. Besides manufacturing as a primary application of automation, the handbook contains new application areas such as medical systems and health, transportation, security and maintenance, service, construction and retail as well as production or logistics. This Springer Handbook is not only an ideal resource for automation experts but also for people new to this expanding field such as engineers, medical doctors, computer scientists, designers. It is edited by an internationally renowned and experienced expert.

Recenzii

From the reviews: "This is an important and ambitious project, and will be of interest to those involved with the IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering. I think Shimon Nof is the perfect person for this job".
- Ken Goldberg Vice President Technical Activities IEEE Robotics and Automation Society,
Chair of Advisory Board IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering
“This handbook … contains a DVD with the complete PDF version of the book, providing the reader with a friendly and intuitive interactive access. … this is an outstanding handbook, covering automation from all kinds of perspectives, applied scenarios, and new trends, which will be, without doubt, very useful for our community. Congratulations to Nof and coworkers for a very good job.” (Pedro J. Sanz, IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, March, 2010)
“First impression readers would have about the Springer Handbook of Automation is its comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the subject of automation. … provides a more detailed, useful discussion of control theory and fuzzy logic for advanced students and professionals. … interest to general engineering readers (or even general readers) who would like an introduction to the subject as well as a discussion of its history, e.g., the status of automation during the Greek and Arab eras. Summing Up: Recommended. General readers and professionals.” (S. D. El Wakil, Choice, Vol. 47 (7), March, 2010)
