Instance Specification Principles of System Science (Mobus)
Mobus, George E. and Kalton, Michael C.
Serves as a textbook for teaching systems fundamentals in any discipline or for use in an introductory course in systems science degree programs
Addresses a wide range of audiences with different levels of mathematical sophistication
Includes open-ended questions in special boxes intended to stimulate integrated thinking and class discussion
Describes numerous examples of systems in science and society
Captures the trend towards interdisciplinary research and problem solving
This pioneering text provides a comprehensive introduction to systems structure, function, and modeling as applied in all fields of science and engineering. Systems understanding is increasingly recognized as a key to a more holistic education and greater problem solving skills, and is also reflected in the trend toward interdisciplinary approaches to research on complex phenomena. While the concepts and components of systems science will continue to be distributed throughout the various disciplines, undergraduate degree programs in systems science are also being developed, including at the authors’ own institutions. However, the subject is approached, systems science as a basis for understanding the components and drivers of phenomena at all scales should be viewed with the same importance as a traditional liberal arts education.
