Architecting a Satisficing Strategy for Designing Complex Systems
暫譯: 設計複雜系統的滿意策略架構

在本書中，作者描述了設計師如何通過設計演進循環（Design Evolution Cycle）來演進他們的設計。它識別了與設計複雜系統相關的挑戰，例如處理多個相互衝突的目標、演變的設計偏好、非線性和非凸約束與目標、連續和離散變數、耦合決策、具有不同保真度的子模型，以及出現的特性。

本書使設計師能夠在設計複雜系統時做出穩健、知情且不斷改進的決策。

Janet K. Allen came to the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Oklahoma from Georgia Tech in 2009. At the University of Oklahoma, Janet holds the John and Mary Moore Chair of Engineering. Janet graduated with an S.B. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley. At the University of Oklahoma, Janet Allen has built on her background in engineering design to think about the various types of product and process networks including the integrated design of materials, products, and other engineering systems. Her research focus is on managing the uncertainty which is inherent in simulation-based design. Her group was among the first to recognize that there are four types of uncertainty inherent in simulation-based design and to suggest that this uncertainty could be managed with robust design.

Lin Guo is Assistant Professor of the Department of Industrial Engineering at South Dakota School of Mines and Technology. She got her Ph.D. in industrial and systems engineering in 2021 from University of Oklahoma, M.S. in management science and engineering in 2011 from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and B.S. in management information systems in 2007 from Zhongnan University of Economics and Law. Lin Guo's research interests include exploring satisficing strategies for engineering design; data science and analytics in manufacturing and health care; and hazardous products end-of-life management. She devotes herself to merging machine learning (ML) techniques and operation research (OR) to deliver useful, effective, and efficient methods and approaches for supporting human decision-making in the design of complex engineered systems. She has co-authored 9 journal papers and 4 conference papers in engineering design and data analytics.

Farrokh Mistree holds L. A. Comp Chair in the School of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, Oklahoma. Farrokh received his B.Tech. (Hons) degree in Naval Architecture in 1967 from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and his Ph.D. in engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1974. He has co-authored two textbooks, two monographs, and more than 400 technical papers dealing with the integrated realization of materials; products and associated manufacturing processes; the design of mechanical, thermal, and structural systems; ships and aircraft; and supply networks. His design experience spans the areas of mechanical, aeronautical, structural, and industrial engineering. He has taught courses in engineering design, naval architecture, solid mechanics, operations research, and computer science. He has supervised 34 doctoral students and 60 master's students, all of whom are well-placed around the world.

珍妮特·K·艾倫（Janet K. Allen）於2009年從喬治亞理工學院（Georgia Tech）來到奧克拉荷馬大學（University of Oklahoma）的工業與系統工程學院。在奧克拉荷馬大學，珍妮特擔任約翰與瑪麗·摩爾工程講座教授（John and Mary Moore Chair of Engineering）。珍妮特在麻省理工學院（Massachusetts Institute of Technology）獲得學士學位（S.B.），並在加州大學伯克利分校（University of California, Berkeley）獲得博士學位（Ph.D.）。在奧克拉荷馬大學，珍妮特·艾倫基於她在工程設計方面的背景，思考各種產品和過程網絡，包括材料、產品及其他工程系統的綜合設計。她的研究重點是管理模擬設計中固有的不確定性。她的團隊是最早認識到模擬設計中存在四種類型不確定性並提出可以通過穩健設計來管理這些不確定性的團隊之一。

林果（Lin Guo）是南達科他礦業與技術學院（South Dakota School of Mines and Technology）工業工程系的助理教授。她於2021年在奧克拉荷馬大學獲得工業與系統工程博士學位（Ph.D.），2011年在上海交通大學獲得管理科學與工程碩士學位（M.S.），以及2007年在中南財經政法大學獲得管理資訊系統學士學位（B.S.）。林果的研究興趣包括探索工程設計中的滿意策略；製造和醫療保健中的數據科學與分析；以及危險產品的生命週期管理。她致力於將機器學習（ML）技術與運籌學（OR）相結合，以提供有用、有效且高效的方法和途徑，支持人類在複雜工程系統設計中的決策。她已共同撰寫9篇工程設計和數據分析的期刊論文及4篇會議論文。

法羅克·米斯特里（Farrokh Mistree）在奧克拉荷馬大學（University of Oklahoma）航空與機械工程學院擔任L. A. Comp講座教授。法羅克於1967年在印度理工學院卡哈拉古爾分校（Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur）獲得海軍建築學士學位（B.Tech. (Hons)），並於1974年在加州大學伯克利分校獲得工程博士學位（Ph.D.）。他共同撰寫了兩本教科書、兩本專著以及400多篇技術論文，涉及材料的綜合實現、產品及相關製造過程、機械、熱能和結構系統的設計、船舶和飛機以及供應網絡。他的設計經驗涵蓋機械、航空、結構和工業工程領域。他教授過工程設計、海軍建築、固體力學、運籌學和計算機科學等課程。他指導了34名博士生和60名碩士生，這些學生在全球各地都得到了良好的就業機會。
