E-raamat: Multisensor Instrumentation 6o Design - Defined Accuracy Computer-Integrated Measurement Systems: Defined Accuracy Computer-Integrated Measurement Systems [Wiley Online]

Provides an instrumentation and system reference for computer-centered measurement systems. Garrett (electrical engineering, U. of Cincinnati) demonstrates a composite, error-modeled design methodology for implementing defined accuracy, computer integrated measurement systems. Highlights of the book include end-to-end instrumentation performance modeling in terms of comprehensive mean and RSS errors, signal conditioning capabilities extending to sensor noise thresholds, samples data designs guided by definitive intersample error metrics, and evaluation of algorithmic error propagation in complex multisensor architectures.

A groundbreaking book based on a landmark quality initiative

In 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 spreadsheet

An 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.

An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available from the Wiley editorial department.
