Systems Engineering Simplified

Systems Engineering Simplified

Designed to give non-engineers an understanding of systems engineering Systems Engineering Simplified presents a gentle introduction to the subject and its importance in any profession. The book shows you how to look at any system as a whole and use this knowledge to gain a better understanding of where a system might break down how to troubleshoot the issues and then quickly resolve them. And does it all in a way that does not require sophisticated technical training or complicated mathematics. The book takes a holistic approach to thinking about the complex systems providing a deeper understanding of the underlying nature of the system and the vocabulary of systems engineering. The authors give you working knowledge of the processes used to design build test operate and maintain the systems that we depend on every day. They break down the systems engineering life cycle describing in the simplest terms what should be done along the development process. Although there are many facets of systems engineering it can be explained as focusing on addressing why a system is needed what the system must do and then how the system will accomplish the task over the entire life of the system—in that order. This fundamental review covers the processes from beginning to end in plain language giving you an overview of systems engineering that you can translate into your work in any field.

Routledge Handbook of Evidence-Based Criminal Justice Practices

Routledge Handbook of Evidence-Based Criminal Justice Practices

Now more than ever the criminal justice system and the programs policies and practices within it are subject to increased public scrutiny due to well-founded concerns over effectiveness fairness and potential unintended consequences. One of the best means to address these concerns is to draw upon evidence-based approaches demonstrated to be effective through empirical research rather than through anecdote standard practice or professional experience alone (National Institute of Justice 2011). The goal of this book is to describe the most useful actionable and evidence-based solutions to many of the most pressing questions in the criminal justice system today. Specifically this edited volume contains brief and accessible summaries of the best available research alongside detailed descriptions of evidence-based practices across different areas of the criminal justice system. It is written so that practitioners and researchers alike can use the text as reference tool in their work and in training the new generation of individuals working to improve the system. Researchers and practitioners in many areas of criminal justice – crime prevention policing courts (prosecution defendants judges) corrections sanctions and sentencing – can reference specific chapters in this book to guide their policy and practice decisions. Although theory is a guide for the practices described the chapters will address practical issues in implementation and action. This book overcomes the limitations of previous criminal justice practice books in that it is written as a practice resource and reference guide and spans practices and policies across different sectors of the criminal justice system – from prevention to policing to sanctions and corrections. Each chapter contains a list of action items based upon the best available scientific research that can be implemented in practice to address key issues and long standing challenges in the criminal justice system. | Routledge Handbook of Evidence-Based Criminal Justice Practices

The Basics of Hoshin Kanri

The Basics of Hoshin Kanri

The problem with most Hoshin Kanri books is that they describe a complex methodology that is overwhelming to most leaders and their organizations. The need to essentially change the culture of the entire organization to make Hoshin work isn�t practical for most companies when first starting out. The Basics of Hoshin Kanri uses an easy-to-follow story format to simplify and explain Hoshin Kanri � a method for strategy deployment. Supplying clear descriptions of the steps of Hoshin Kanri it advocates using Hoshin as an important tool for improving an organization�s existing planning and execution system while simultaneously moving the culture of the organization forward. The book provides readers with a new understanding of Hoshin Kanri as a powerful deployment system for strategic planning defining a direction and priorities and aligning the organization around that direction. It begins by telling the story of a manufacturing executive that uses a simple Hoshin Kanri approach to make significant change in his personal life. Next the book illustrates how this executive prepares to apply Hoshin Kanri to deploy strategy within his business. It concludes by presenting fascinating excerpts from the author�s own interviews with experts in the field of Hoshin Kanri. All business leaders want their organizations to be great in all respects but the reality is that they must get to good before they can consider becoming great.

The Routledge Handbook of Women's Experiences of Criminal Justice

The Routledge Handbook of Women's Experiences of Criminal Justice

This Handbook brings together the voices of a range of contributors interested in the many varied experiences of women in criminal justice systems and who are seeking to challenge the status quo. Although there is increasing literature and research on gender and certain aspects of the criminal justice system (often Western focused) there is a significant gap in the form of a Handbook that brings together these important gendered conversations. This essential book explores research and theory on how women are perceived handled and experience criminal justice within and across different jurisdictions with particular consideration of gendered and disparate treatment of women as law-breakers. There is also consideration of women’s experiences through an intersectional lens including race and class as well as feminist scholarship and activism. The Handbook contains 47 unique chapters with nine overarching themes (Lessons from history and theory; Routes into the criminal justice system; Intersectionality; Sentencing and the courts and community punishments; Specific offences; Incarcerated women’s experiences; Mothers and families; Rehabilitation and reintegration; Practitioner relationships) and each theme includes contributions from different countries as well as the experiences of contributors from different stages in their own journey. International and interdisciplinary in scope this Handbook is essential reading for scholars and students of criminology sociology social policy social work and law. It will also be of interest to practitioners such as social workers probation officers prison officers and policy makers. | The Routledge Handbook of Women's Experiences of Criminal Justice

Patent Fundamentals for Scientists and Engineers

Patent Fundamentals for Scientists and Engineers

The most significant overhaul of the U. S. patent laws in decades occurred with the recent passage of the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (AIA). Understanding the law that dictates what a patent is and how a patent is obtained and enforced and the recent changes through statute or case law litigation presents unique challenges. This third edition of Patent Fundamentals for Scientists and Engineers examines the new Act and provides an overview of the patent system for the independent inventor as well as for members of the scientific and business community whether a scientist engineer supervisor or manager. In addition to a new chapter dedicated to the America Invents Act the third edition includes annotations of the recent law changes updates in all chapters new figures and new case studies. The authors discuss patent filing outside of the United States and also dedicate a chapter specifically to the Canadian patent system. They describe the key topics that anyone involved in the patent process needs to know including what makes an invention patentable the art of patent searching and the crucial role of record keeping. The text also includes an indispensable glossary of patent terminology as well as an appendix with sample U. S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) forms. This book provides a valuable guide to assist inventors in dealing with the USPTO as well as with patent professionals. The text describes the patent process from conception to application filing and is a must-have reference for scientists and businesspeople alike. Since the role of patent professionals is to obtain the maximum protection for inventors both the inventor and businessperson would be well advised to understand and participate in all the steps involved. This book offers an excellent insight into the patent process.
