INCOSE Systems Engineering Handbook

A detailed and thorough reference on the discipline and
practice of systems engineering

The objective of the International Council on Systems
Engineering (INCOSE) Systems Engineering Handbook is to
describe key process activities performed by systems engineers and
other engineering professionals throughout the life cycle of a
system. The book covers a wide range of fundamental system concepts
that broaden the thinking of the systems engineering practitioner,
such as system thinking, system science, life cycle management,
specialty engineering, system of systems, and agile and iterative
methods. This book also defines the discipline and practice of
systems engineering for students and practicing professionals
alike, providing an authoritative reference that is acknowledged
worldwide.

The latest edition of the INCOSE Systems Engineering
Handbook:

* Is consistent with ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288:2015 Systems and software
engineering--System life cycle processes and the Guide to the
Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK)

* Has been updated to include the latest concepts of the INCOSE
working groups

* Is the body of knowledge for the INCOSE Certification
Process

This book is ideal for any engineering professional who has an
interest in or needs to apply systems engineering practices. This
includes the experienced systems engineer who needs a convenient
reference, a product engineer or engineer in another discipline who
needs to perform systems engineering, a new systems engineer, or
anyone interested in learning more about systems engineering.
