This book demonstrates the use of a wide range of strategic engineering concepts theories and
applied case studies to improve the safety security and sustainability of complex and
large-scale engineering and computer systems. It first details the concepts of system design
life cycle impact assessment and security to show how these ideas can be brought to bear on
the modeling analysis and design of information systems with a focused view on cloud-computing
systems and big data analytics. This informative book is a valuable resource for graduate
students researchers and industry-based practitioners working in engineering information and
business systems as well as strategy.
