{"product_id":"9781118536322","title":"Engineering Informatics: Fundamentals of Computer-Aided Engineering","description":"\u003cp\u003eComputers are ubiquitous throughout all life-cycle stages of engineering, from conceptual design to manufacturing maintenance, repair and replacement.  It is essential for all engineers to be aware of the knowledge behind computer-based tools and techniques they are likely to encounter. The computational technology, which allows engineers to carry out design, modelling, visualisation,  manufacturing, construction and management of products and infrastructure is known as Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEngineering Informatics: Fundamentals of Computer-Aided Engineering, 2nd Edition\u003c\/i\u003e provides the foundation knowledge of computing that is essential for all engineers. This knowledge is independent of hardware and software characteristics and thus, it is expected to remain valid throughout an engineering career. This Second Edition is enhanced with treatment of new areas such as network science and the computational complexity of distributed systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey features: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides extensive coverage of almost all aspects of Computer-Aided Engineering, outlining general concepts such as fundamental logic, definition of engineering tasks and computational complexity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEvery chapter revised and expanded following more than ten years of experience teaching courses on the basis of the first edition\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers numerous representation frameworks and reasoning strategies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConsiders the benefits of increased computational power, parallel computing and cloud computing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers many practical engineering examples and exercises, with lecture notes available for many of the topics\/chapters from the ASCE Technical Council on Computing and Information Technology, Global Centre of Excellence in Computing (www.asceglobalcenter.org), providing a valuable resource for lecturers.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAccompanied by a website hosting updates and solutions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEngineering Informatics: Fundamentals of Computer-Aided Engineering, 2nd Edition\u003c\/i\u003e provides essential knowledge on computing theory in engineering contexts for students, researchers and practising engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120017850608,"sku":"9781118536322","price":117.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118536322_p0.jpg?v=1763694722","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118536322","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
