It is especially designed for use as a text in an introduction to indus-trial engineering course. The purpose is to define industrial and systems engineering, describe its place in the business world, and give a broad picture of the functional areas with some solution techniques. The book is also use-ful to anyone desiring an overview of industrial engineering. This book is not a detailed text for any of the individual techniques pre-sented, but it does show what an industrial and systems engineer is capable of doing in a wide variety of organizations. Special attention is given to describ-ing situations in which the tools or techniques may be applied. Instead of taking the classical "technique looking for a problem approach," the prob-lems are first described and then the technique(s) applicable to the problems is (are) discussed ER -
