Advances in Integrated Intelligent Systems Engineering

Edited by: Waldemar Karwowski Vincent G. Duffy, and Gavriel Salvendy

To be published by John Wiley & Sons, New York

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Over the last five years, the field of systems engineering has undergone a significant transformation, driven by the integration of digital technologies, the need for a transdisciplinary approach to the subject matter, the impact of artificial intelligence, including deep learning and large language models, and the ever-increasing complexity of engineering projects globally.

Intelligent systems engineering is critical in today's complex and interconnected world. As technology advances and societal challenges become increasingly intricate, the need for intelligent approaches to designing, managing, and optimizing large-scale systems has never been more critical.

This edited book is designed to provide comprehensive coverage of the emerging field of integrated intelligent systems engineering, from foundational principles through advanced methodologies to practical applications and future directions.

"Advances in Integrated Intelligent Systems Engineering" will comprehensively cover principles, methodologies, tools, and case studies. The book will serve as both an authoritative guide for professionals and a foundational text for academics by focusing on the use of intelligent systems engineering to enhance efficiency, creativity, and collaboration, thereby enabling the development and use of complex engineered systems.
