Farr, John V.,

Engineering economics of life cycle cost analysis / by John Vail Farr and Isaac Faber. - 1 online resource.

Includes index.

"Engineering has changed dramatically in the last century. With modern computing systems, instantanious communcation, elimination of low/mid management, and extremely efficent supply chains has dramatically affected the responsibilities of engineers at all levels. The future will requires systems that are move complex. Employees at all levels need to be able to develop accurate cost estimates based upon defensible cost analysis. It is under this backdrop that this book is being written. By presenting the methods, processes, and tools needed to conduct cost analysis, estimation, and management of complex systems, this textbook is the next step beyond basic engineering economics"--
