商品描述

Probability Methods for Cost Uncertainty Analysis: A Systems Engineering Perspective, Second Edition gives you a thorough grounding in the analytical methods needed for modeling and measuring uncertainty in the cost of engineering systems. This includes the treatment of correlation between the cost of system elements, how to present the analysis to decision-makers, and the use of bivariate probability distributions to capture joint interactions between a system's cost and schedule. Analytical techniques from probability theory are stressed, along with the Monte Carlo simulation method. Numerous examples and case discussions illustrate the practical application of theoretical concepts.





While the original chapters from the first edition remain unchanged, this second edition contains new material focusing on the application of theory to problems encountered in practice. Highlights include the use of GERM to build development and production cost estimating relationships as well as the eSBM, which was developed from a need in the community to offer simplified analytical alternatives to advanced probability-based approaches. The book also lists the major technical works of the late Dr. Stephen A. Book, a mathematician and world-renowned cost analyst whose contributions advanced the theory and practice of cost risk analysis.

《成本不確定性分析的機率方法:系統工程觀點(第二版)》為您提供了建模和測量工程系統成本不確定性所需的分析方法的全面基礎。這包括系統元素成本之間的相關性處理、如何向決策者呈現分析結果,以及使用雙變量機率分佈來捕捉系統成本與進度之間的聯合互動。書中強調了來自機率理論的分析技術,以及蒙地卡羅模擬方法。眾多範例和案例討論說明了理論概念的實際應用。

雖然第一版的原始章節保持不變,但第二版包含了新的材料,重點在於將理論應用於實際中遇到的問題。亮點包括使用 GERM 建立開發和生產成本估算關係,以及 eSBM,這是基於社群需求而開發的,旨在提供簡化的分析替代方案,以取代先進的基於機率的方法。書中還列出了已故的斯蒂芬·A·布克博士的主要技術著作,他是一位數學家和世界知名的成本分析師,其貢獻推進了成本風險分析的理論和實踐。
