4.0 out of 5 stars
Using it for part of my research, May 30, 2000

This review is from: Manufacturing Systems Engineering (Hardcover)
Well, when I was presented with this topic initially, I had doubts whether I will pick up right away. It's not exactly new to me, but the concepts were.
My advisor showed me this book. It was difficult to follow at first, but not at all after figuring out the ties and knots. The language presented is clear and simple. The chapters are presented in a progressive manner. In addition, so very often the author will make references to earlier chapters when needed. There will always be technical jargons in every book like this, but there are accompanied footnotes that help the reader along the way.
This is definitely a good literature for management, operations research, industrial, manufacturing engineering majors, who has a huge interest in factory engineering.
Finally, when I decide to own a copy, then I know it's actually out of print! But fear not, you will be able to find a copy. ;)

This is the good stochastic manufacturing systems book, April 30, 1999
This review is from: Manufacturing Systems Engineering (Hardcover)
As I said, this is the good stochastic manufacturing book. Even though the book is intended for graduate student, it's not too hard for undergrad at all. You can do more details -after reading Factory Physics- by using this book. I would give it more than 5 stars if Amazon have!
