Informationen zum Autor PATRICK H. GARRETT is an electrical engineering faculty member at the University of Cincinnati, where he has developed courses in manufacturing, controls, and process instrumentation. He holds several engineering degrees and has written five textbooks on instrumentation and process control that have been adopted internationally. He continues to be involved in long-term research projects, for both government and private sectors focused on performance advancement of information-intensive real-time systems. Klappentext A groundbreaking book based on a landmark quality initiativeIn today's information-driven enterprises, accuracy is essential in computer-integrated measurement and control systems, where academia, government, and industry invest considerable resources in methodologies for achieving and maintaining high performance. Multisensor Instrumentation 6s Design offers a blueprint-drawn from the author's thirty years of experience at federal laboratories, steel producers, and General Electric-for defined-accuracy computer-based measurement and control instrumentation. Based on GE's Six-Sigma initiative, which was described by GE Chairman and CEO Jack Welch as "the most important initiative this company has ever undertaken," it presents a proven methodology for defining, measuring, analyzing, improving, and controlling the quality of enterprise products, processes, and transactions.Multisensor Instrumentation 6s Design offers readers:* A proven measurement and process control resource based on an important industry initiative* Expert pedagogy from an author with many years of practical industry involvement and electrical engineering instruction* A professional reference and textbook with a solutions manual* Accompanying user-interactive error-modeling software instrumentation design and spreadsheetAn important resource for electrical and computer engineering students and practitioners, as well as professionals in such fields as manufacturing, biotechnology, and process systems, Multisensor Instrumentation 6s Design is universally applicable to all fields that employ real-time computer integration of processes and transactions. Zusammenfassung Mit der hier besprochenen Methodik kann man die Genauigkeit computergesteuerter Prozesse und Transaktionen sicherstellen. Behandelt wird die computergestützte Steuerung, Datensammlung und -analyse, gestützt auf die fünfzehnjährige Erfahrung des Autors bei der Air Force und als Mitarbeiter der Six-Sigma-Initiative von General Electric. Die Ansätze sind allgemeiner Natur und deshalb vielseitig verwendbar. Vom FTP-Server von Wiley kann eine zugehörige Fehlermodellierungssoftware abgerufen werden; ein Lösungsheft ist erhältlich.
